I am eyeing two rear ends right now.

1 is from a '69 camaro 12 bolt 3.73 posi.

The other is from a '74 or '75 Nova 10 bolt posi.

Are both of these rear ends a straight bolt in to my '67 Camaro with Hotchkiss 3- leaf springs?

Thanks!

Yes. Either will bolt right in.

Make sure the Nova r.end is an 8.5".

Both of these rear ends will have multi leaf spring perches on them, which might require a spacer of some kind to work with your springs. The Nova rear end should have the 1310 yoke, which is what you will need. In '76 they started using the 3R u joint, which would require drive shaft modifications.

Thanks guys!
And Jim - if I find two I will let you know and even buy both if you give me the thumbs up. I get the prettiest one :yes: .

However the 12 bolt went for over $1300 (with a lot of trick parts installed - strange axels, etc.)

I am guessing $500 -$600 is the going price for an 8.5" posi. --> ?
