  • New available colors: Elkhart Blue, Goodwood Green, Lynndale Blue, Marina Blue, Marlboro Maroon.
Interior:
  • The parking brake was relocated from under the dash to the center console between the seats.
  • The passenger handle above the glove box was eliminated for the 1967 model year.
Mechanical:
  • 1967 was the first year for the L88 engine.
