N100025,  “The 327 3-Speed Test Car”, was delivered on June 3, 1966 from Fisher Body as coach #DD34D.  Like all F-Body Pilot Prototypes at Norwood, it started its hand built assembly in consecutive VIN number order as the twenty-fifth build of the engineering study.  One of one on Fleet and Special Order # 5A-21 made by Engineering Testing it carried model # 12667.  This blue on blue convertible was the eighth convertible ever built.  With a 327 cubic inch power plant and a standard 3-Speed transmission, its lack of presence in photo shoots at General Motors proving grounds make it an elusive piece of Camaro history.  It was required to be received by C. Caswell at the General Motors Proving Grounds on or around June 17, 1966 for testing.  NCRS certificates show #25 being returned to corporate, Zone 0 and it is thought to be used as a company promotional vehicle shortly thereafter.   Current whereabouts and

existence is unknown as of 3-1-2015.
