The mid-size Camaro has been produced by Chevrolet (a division of General Motors) since 1966 when it was first introduced as a competitor to Ford’s popular Mustang ‘pony car’. When the first generation Camaro's were released in 1967 they shared the basic platform and many components with the Firebird which was produced by GM’s Pontiac division. The first major production run of the Camaro ran from 1966 until 2002.

Regarding his particular restoration, Andrew reports:
Andrew Vile tells the story so far, of his online auction Camaro purchase.
It rolled into the paint shop for a coat of 2010 Camaro "Victory Red". The car had a 350 Chev motor with 4 barrel carb option from new, so I have kept it to that specification. The only real non original bits are the high rise bonnet, Edelbrock engine kit and the wheels. I have kept the original wheels if I want the standard look. I have the wiring and new interior to complete and rear brakes, then the final tidy up to do. It has been a very enjoyable project so far, although I have just started to fit the door glass and weather strips. That appears to be a different story!"
The 1970 model year Camaros are generally regarded as the most desirable of the early second-generation cars, due to the performance of examples from the following years being reduced by the new automobile emissions control systems, and later the addition of heavy legally required bumpers.
