Good luck with that man ... Camaro verts are notorious for the rattles.
If you figure it out please share.

Mine doesn't rattle. I'd go through each little section and tighten or replace the bolts/nuts of it and oil/grease it lightly. A tight top won't rattle. Also a tired suspension can compound the issue.

You can also reduce rattles by adding sub frame connectors and rebuilding the door hinges.
