Restoration / Rear antenna hole

« on: March 21, 2007, 03:59:58 PM »

My car had a rear antenna.  It's been at the body shop having the rear 1/4's were replaced.  When the 1/4's were removed the antenna hole that was in the old fender was tossed without a mesurement.  Now it's my job to find the correct location.  Anybody have the dementions and a photo I can pass on the the bodyman?

Thanks!  Joe

General Discussion / X Codes

I have an X-11 SS coupe.  I was wondering what decided the X codes.  Looking through the pages of this site I've notice SS cars with other than X-11 numbers.

Originality / Chambered exhaust

« on: February 28, 2007, 10:06:39 PM »

Hi all!!!  I'm currious to know how loud a chambered system is.  I know they were discontinued because they were too loud but the enthusiests idea and the authorities idea of loud are two different things.  Also were they an option that could be had with any V8 and did that V8 have to have headers?
Thanks, Joe

Originality / Build sheet missing

« on: February 28, 2007, 09:01:51 PM »

I have my 69 coupe all stripped out for the body shop and I never found a build sheet.   Having checked in the seat bottoms I still found nothing.  I had a Corvette not too long ago and found the build sheet on top of the gas tank and under the passengers carpet...Nothing on top of the gas tank on the Camaro either. 

Would anyone have a picture of a 69 build sheet?  I'm currious to see what I am missing
Thanks! Joe

General Discussion / Speaker / rear defogger

« on: February 24, 2007, 08:56:25 PM »

I'm restoring a 69 SS coupe, though it's still in the body shop I'm doing my homework now so it gets back together correctly.  This is a non-A/C car.  My question is, how were the front and rear speakers (especially the fronts) for a stereo radio placed in the kick panel if they were at all.  and the rear defogger grill .  Was a rear defogger a dealer or factory option?
Thanks

Restoration / D90 Stripes

« on: January 28, 2007, 06:12:01 PM »

I'm in the process of a restoration on a 69 SS coupe.  It is a Fathom Green car witha dark green interior.  Sometime over the years it was repainted (poorly) and if it had stripes on it at all they were removed.  We're at the stage of conversation where the body shop wants to know if I'm adding the stripes.  My question is was the D90 (hockey sticks) stripe painted on from the factory if ordered with stripes or was it a stick-on the dealer did before delivery.  Also what would be the color of the stripes.  I'm thinking they'd be white or was there a color option?
Thanks, Joe

The photo is from a year ago... The sheetmetal is now fixed.

General Discussion / Build sheet info

« on: May 07, 2006, 11:30:33 PM »

 Hi all... I'm looking for the info and codes that GM would have used to fill in the blanks on a 69 Camaro build sheet.  I'm sure it's here on this site but I have not located it.  I'd love to find it as a complete list A to Z.
