Only minor appearance changes highlighted the 1976 Camaro, most notably a brushed metal\u00a0insert in the rear tail section on the LT model. The 250 cubic-inch six-cylinder remained the\u00a0standard engine in the sport coupe and a new 140-horsepower 305 cubic-inch V8 became the\u00a0standard engine in the LT and base V8 option in the sport coupe. The larger 350 cubic-inch V8\u00a0was now only available with a four-barrel carburetor and 165 horsepower (123kW).\u00a0Power brakes became standard on V8 models this year. The Camaro’s popularity was soaring. Sales totals jumped significantly for 1976, the best year yet for the second generation, and were to improve even more dramatically as the decade progressed.\u00a0Standing alone in its class, the 1976 Camaro was capturing the spotlight and was slowly becoming more popular with US car buyers.<\/p>\n
