Do you guys have TT info on the cars you are aware of? Maybe you could get a consensus from build dates as to a time frame or maybe a grouping of cars?

All you need to do is provide your jobber with the paint codes and have it mixed just as shops do. Unless you have a mixing system and mix in house. Interior hues varied within the car and codes don't lie. Here are links that you can use for reference.  You can also contact your jobber or call the color library for the paint company you use. http://documents.clubexpress.com/documents.ashx?key=Mn9lNR5oNp9Osk1Oybo9zXiUl8H2ZPEfYNR%2fojqMOY6daTf3pOKmoYhGMkL2rkQ%2f

http://www.worldwidecamaroclub.com/pdf/tech/paintcodes.pdf

http://camaroattitude.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?manuf=GM&model=Camaro

Links don't work for me. But I remember JM's 1969 Z/28 and SS Camaro Fact Book has a list of finishes printed and noted the dashtop was 30% gloss. I don't recall the gloss percentage for the rest of the interior.

If your company, work or organization manages your browser you cannot change this setting. It will prevent you from logging in and strip all .jpeg photos out of the posts. The big thing is that for everyone, if the website is not secure third parties can see or log anything being typed in including usernames and passwords and PMs.

True, but it also depends on what the administrator allows. I'm on a work computer now and can make those setting changes and lose no photos from posts; and I am not the administrator.

Are these differences found on cars from both plants?

There should be a security/privacy tab in your browser settings. You may want to check settings in your antivirus too.

Funny.

I was wondering if it had anything to do with not being able to get the top up. 😂

No words. Hard to believe that anyone these days wouldn't know what is, or is not, correct.

There are three elements; the oil pan, dipstick tube and dipstick. One must be incorrect.

Gotta say I like that hood on that body style! Wonder how it would look with factory Z stripes? Might have too much going on and look better without them. I have seen them with a single stripe which looks good though.
