Royal Plum was not a Camaro only color, but was available throughout the
whole model line as far as I can tell as I have seen an Impala, and a
Camaro that color. My 67 Monza started life as that color but has been
repainted a cadillac bronze very similar to Aztek bronze but at the time I
picked it as there was more metalflake in it.
NFCC member Bob Kurnetta owns a 67 Monza in Royal Plum.
Recently saw an evening orchid, 65 Impala too with a 409! Last year for
that motor.
My 67 Dodge Coronet is a one year only color, medium copper, with same
color interior.

 Craig, Reminds me of the '67 purple color, I believe
it was called Royal Plum. I've only ever seen a part
that came off one. Does anyone know of any complete
survivors?
