One good turn deserves another
F - D Over Rebuilt Dodge The original name of the Camaro was the "Panther" . Not sure why they changed it. I acutally had a early 67 originally bought in North Carolina that was ordered by the dealer for the owners daughter .The factory order sheets all said Panther . |

"Now branded with the "Panther" script and leaping-cat emblems similar to that used by Jaguar, the proto-types advanced with an outward confidence that Chevrolet's sleek new cat would be chasing down the Mustang. By early 1966, Ralph Nader was doing a hatchet job on the Corvair, and GM management sought to tone-down the image of their new car in hopes of not drawing the attention of safety crusaders with the aggressive "Panther" name." source: http://www.classicar.com/index.php?o...siccar&Itemid=

For the record, I love the Camaro and I do like the name, but I think a Chevy Panther would have also been interesting.
Oh, and f*** Ralph Nader. If it's unsafe at any speed, may as well do 120, ass.

Guys!
It is ( Cam - Aero), Not German or Spanish or Chinese. This is a pure Made in USA product. Just like Korn flakes, where I meant really Corn flakes. Got it ? Now go to your class and do your home work.

Neil Armstrong has reached the moon, and you cant jump over the border
Well, let me revise .... hmmmm Got it, it is a dude from U.S who went to Canada and shout ( Cam Aero), then came back to the states. So Cam areo is U.S made phrase for a Canadian car. Cant you see why your dash board is different, he didnt give them all the secrets and left something for you.

Camaro=Pal and Pal is american, therefore Camaro is american . Now why the french guy used Camaro and not pal because pal is a VHS system and he feared confusion between them.
