Hello to all!

I am not sure if this is represented here, but does anyone know of the ORIGIN of the Camaro name? Well, I have found this little tid-bit that I think should be a part of the WiKi! Check it out:

Camaro Folklore
Ever wonder where the name Camaro came from? In the archives of Chevy folklore, this question was asked when the new Camaro was first introduced. What they told the press was that the word Camaro came from an "obscure 1935 French-to-English dictionary," and it means "comrade, pal, or chum."

My best buddy (who has a 65 Convertible Chevelle found this on ultimateperformance.ca)
