1975 Chevrolet Camaro Preview summaryImage

The 1975 Chevrolet Camaro had few options. There was no Z28 produced, and aficionados continued to miss the Super Sport (SS) and its powerful line of engines. Instead, they were given a base engine of a 250 I6 rated at 105 horsepower, and could up it to a 350-ci V8 rated at either 145 or 155 horsepower. Stupid gas lines.

Exterior changes included a new wrap-around rear window designed to improve rear visibility problems cited in previous model years. The window must have had some powerful impact, as Chevy managed to sell 145,770 Camaros despite the wicked reduction in power.

I have a 75 Camaro, I have enjoyed mine, its the heaviest of all, makes a nice hwy car. I changed a few things, top end car, 138, I let off. lbs for lbs, with all factory perks, maybe the TransAm, only cause of the 6.6cid. However, my Camaro rides better, my dad had a 75TA, trips were hard. I rate Cam, 8.9!Apr 02, 2023

In the short period of time that I owned my 1975 Camaro it was a great time for me. It was my first car and I could not wait to get my licence and drive it. I miss that car and after all of these years I still miss it and wish I was more careful with it. I now have a 1980 Camaro project car that I hope to build one day and that will be also to commemorate my long lost 1975. I have big plans for it if I can ever get the project started and I can't wait to get it finished and put it into shows and car clubs.Apr 19, 2012

Well I got a 1975 Camaro last night and its awesome. It is a project car but its still amazing. It has a 5.3 L V8 Vortec from an 04 Tahoe with 325 hp. The 1975 Camaro is just one of cool looking musle cars out there. Steering and brakes are pretty good for its age. It is just a great car and if you are thinking about getting one just get it.Mar 16, 2012

I love this car. I can drive it on the street and go to drag strip easy as 1,2,3. It has a nice interior and custom front driver seat for seat belt harness to go through. Gas milage is not the best but what do you expect for a BBC. It turns heads every where I go.Sep 27, 2011

Sorry but another borrowed pic, however the colour is right when i was finished with it. Had only steel rims at the time. The grill I had was fire red too. lol It was my first, do it yourself project car, when i was near completion I had neglected to check the frame carefully. The rear springs at the back went into the trunk, therefore the axle was on the rubbers of the frame. **sigh** Live and learn.. right? Jul 22, 2010

muscle car at its best. performance till today is unbelievable, hardly needs repairs, has been built to out last our generation,interior is clean and user friendly and the exterior is slick. if u own an elephant u have to feed it, mileage is not that good but than i am not bothered about it. i do drive it on a daily basis and enjoy every moment while doing so. fun to drive? u have to drive it to find out how much fun it is.May 07, 2010

It needs work but it has a ton of character already. Needs paint new cab, new rims, new tire, new supsension new steering box. But on the upside the body is pretty solid after the work ive had done already and i bought it with 20,000 miles. I love her with all of my heart.Mar 15, 2010

She is a beauty and a beast at the same time. It is a beautiful car with history behind it. Everyone on this planet knows what a camaro is! I think they did a great job with the 2009 model taking it to the old days of 1967Jul 18, 2009

I bought this car back in 1986 and it was my first car. I paid $800.00 for it and had it for a short period of time. It was extremely quick and extremely dangerous. I destroyed in in Sept of the same year and nearly lost my life.Jun 09, 2009

Um, it's a muscle car. What can I say? IT doesn't get good gas mileage, it doesn't handle well. However, it's the coolest car on the road. It's the most fun car to drive I've ever set foot in. It was my first car and I'll probably keep it forever.Aug 05, 2008

This car holds a place in my heart. It was my first car. 5.7L V8 (350 cubic inches), 4BBL carb, 4 speed, dual exhaust, headers. I taught myself how to drive a stick in this car. All my firsts, speeding tickets, well... honestly I don't wanna go down that list. This car was quick, fast, handled well, and stopped well. It made you look like a superstar shifter because the V8 was so powerful you couldn't go wrong. It was reliable, it was easy to tinker on, it was forgiving to work on and drive. Gas mileage was the only drawback, but gas was only $1.20 a gallon when I drove it. Of course, being a 19 year old... I wrecked it. It was devastating. And only did I discover 15 years later that only 1500 1975 Camaro Rally Sports were made. In case you don't know, any domestic car that only 1500 copies are made of is RARE!Feb 14, 2008

bryannc asked a Shopping & Pricing question 16 years ago

Why aren't there many 1975 Camaros for sale?

I found a 75 Camaro for sale for my 16-year-old son for around $8500. The car is in really great shape including new motor and tranny. To see if we're getting a decent deal, I went checking on line for other 75's for sale but there doesn't seem to be many for sale unlike models from previous years. Is this because the 75s are not in demand or not popular or what? Any help would be appreciated. I just want to make sure we're getting a good deal. Thanks.

How much is my Camaro worth to sell?

So I got this 1975 yellow Camaro in an auction in 2019 for $710 cad. Currently the only thing that isn’t og on the car is the exhaust as the drivers side was bent and tearing up the back wheel. It has some decay so new body panels and new floor plan would be needed. It does turn over and run. The only thing is that I don’t have any wheels that fit the bolt pattern for it. Well I do. It they don’t have any rubber on them. I am unsure if it will move under its own power as I’m eating on a rim to get fixed so I can get the rubbers on them. None of the steel rims match the car so I got some aluminum 14” instead of the 15” came with. The only money I have put into the car is fuel and oil along with coolant. My dad and older brother are mechanics and have been helping me understand how to take care of it as o work on it. I am only asking what it be worth to sell on three variations. 1: as the car is with no rubber and 2 sets of 4 rims. 2: car as is with brand new rubbers on 14” aluminum rims (will move under its own power) 3: same as two except will it move on it’s own power I hope to get some helpful information and figure out a proper price range for selling it. As a side note a few months ago there were the exact same model years and body models of that type being sold in exact state of rust or worse for around $1500- $1700 cad. I am unsure if they were operational or not.

Removing a catalytic converter

I have a 1975 Chevrolet Camaro it has a straight 8 in it and it is a completely rebuilt motor with only a hundred miles on it but it keeps choking out and the mechanic suggested that I remove the catalytic converter I am completely exempt from smog I have the license plates and I am it's a classic vehicle so I am exempt does that make me exempt from having to have a catalytic converter as well or would I be illegal if I got rid of the catalytic converter
