From a helpful poster over at alt.autos.camaro.firebird:

"Cool, I remember when I was a kid I had a '67 chevy truck, '67 RS camaro and a
'67 corvette. I would have had my buddies '67 chevelle too but my parents said
I had too many cars already.

They were right, I guess. The camaro is all I
have left of my childhood, how sad, oh, well the measurements are approximately
5' x 8.5". It would be really cool of the headlight doors worked on that truck.
Is that a custom deal or an old GM press photo?"

5' x 8.5" huh, hm wheres one of the tapes at i am now going ot shed ot measure the 68 !

back now, well if you center 5 feet of tape in the grille across it, the ends of the tape end up about a third of the way into the headlamp grille opening areas from away from the center of the grille, but the 8.5" height is basically a perfect fit, leaves the outside diameter surround of the grille to be used with SS grille. hmmmmmmmm.......
is the 5 foot width including the headlamps doors thingies of the maro grille?

thanks@@@
