Kurt, please add my Camaro to the database. 1969 X66 Olympic Gold. Non original engine and trans. Unsure about the rear end.

I was able to get a better picture of the cowl vin. I hope the vin# pic is clearer. I was not able to get the firewall vin pic better yet. I removed a lot of tar from the blower motor area some months back looking for the vin number and was excited when it matched. I used a paint remover for the cowl area and it worked very well at removing the paint to get to the partial vin. I used the same stuff on the firewall vin but I did not get the same results.

I sent you an email but it bounced.

One or two fuel lines? Curious what you find for the stamped axle code.

Kurt I have 2 fuel lines. That would be a 325 or 350 horse originally I think. Is that correct? I will get pics of the rear axle this weekend and I will try to figure out how to send a PM with my email. Thanks

Would it be possible to say the rear axle in my Camaro is original? My car was built 03B. Axle date is B289 which would be Feb 28th and the code has 0313 March 13th.

Your car was final-assembled on or about March 20. The Chevrolet Gear & Axle plant was near Detroit, a 4 hour drive to Norwood.

Entirely possible that is the born-with rear axle.

It fits very well compared with other axle dates - I'd say it's original.

The CBL rear on mine was built 8/12/69. Finish date of the car was 8/28/1969. Without a POP I could only say most likely....Joe
