Click on #8 in the link below. Once you've read the information, click on "the color percentages". You'll find that Butternut Yellow was popular in '67 & '68 but rare for '69.
http://www.camaros.org/geninfo.shtml

Click on #7 below. You'll find some information there on 714. Mainly that it was usually ordered w/76 (Daytona Yellow).

So, short answer...the exact number of '69 Camaro's sold w/your color combination will never be known. Although, based on the most accurate First Gen site known, and the largest First Gen data base site known...yes it is a rare combination.

BTW, You really don't need to use caps lock ;), and welcome to CRG. Great looking car!

Tony - if you get some time please post a side pic of your car. I'd like to get a better look at your D90 Stripe. Mainly at the fender.

Tony, welcome to the site and agree with Marty as the true color production numbers are unknown however, based on information collected this would be a rare color combination.

Give us a little more history on the car. Is it numbers matching? Previous ownership history, how you found it etc.

Obviously not "100% original"; the car has clearly been painted. The stripe is home-made and there is yellow overspray visible in the cowl area.

Bill - Precisely why I wanted a pic of the D90. I thought it could use a well balanced diet.

Sorry Tony, you'll find everyone is fair game around here. Especially when terms like 1 of 1, rare, 100% original, unmolested & etc. are used.  ;)

Yes a mistake on my part. The all original ment drive train,car is # matching all original interior, but yes has been repinted and my 13 year old could of painted a better stripe.
