They were stamped like that. Here's one from an early 67 I did using Mason Row stamps. Car is gone and don't believe I have a TT pic anymore. Sent it to Kurt.

When you polish SS trim, you'll burn through the layer of flash chrome. Yup, the originals aren't as bright, but they don't oxidize either.....Correct. Which is why a variation is obvious if the entire piece is not polished, or adjacent to one with flash chrome.
I was reviewing a posting from John Hinkley (John Z) from 2015 who stated that GM routinely flash chromed stainless steel trim so I stand corrected. I have a couple of sets of NOS windshield and back glass stainless trim that are not nearly as "brilliant" as the stainless on the Cortez RS/Z (by a mile) which leads me wonder if that trim was triple / show chromed along with everything else that received chrome plating. Can't say for sure but it would appear to be the case.What you read is in the link I posted. I have NOS and old used stainless moldings in stock. Also highly polished stainless that was not flash chromed for a customer. I've polished stainless myself with all the proper compounds and buffers. The polished stainless screams brightly like show chrome which is unlike the NOS stainless. I doubt that car you saw had the moldings triple chromed, there is no need and a waste.
You need to contact NCRS and get the dealer. http://www.camaros.org/geninfo.shtml#MyCarHistoryThat will get you close. Still have to tint and do sprayouts for a match. I've done it many times.
The blue could be any shade of blue. Sometimes it's the code 80 blue, sometimes a 63 wedgewood, sometimes its a different shade. Take the header and get the paint scanned.
What's the stamped axle code?
I thought you could get AC with the L35 but not the L78?http://www.camaros.org/pdf/options.pdf
