So I date checked my brake booster and it is a 69 Camaro drum booster.  So my car was manual drum brakes originally,. Maybe that makes the valve not a necessity, even though I have air conditioning

Looks like it was installed incorrectly

 Thanks for the link, I don't usually look at 69 Camaro's, but I hate people that pass fakes as originals.  Trying to dupe a potential buyer isn't right, but an informed buyer is an empowered buyer.

This car is still for sale.   I don't know anything on 69 Camaros, so my curiosity is what is the obvious you guys are seeing to make this car is a fake z/28?

In my first post Pete I posted a pic of my brake line.  But illook at it closer to see if I can tell if there are any threads in the frame.

Kurt S and Ed have been exposed to more research than I will ever know.  Is it possible at any time that maybe the valve failed and somebody could have replaced the line to one piece.  Maybe that the valve had no replacement available?  I would think somebody would just piece it together.  But the camaro i have isn't following assembly line rules.

Weston your car is a perfect example of how I don't understand how the assembly line chose which cars received the valve.

I agree sauron327.  I've only owned the car 2 weeks and it's on jack stands getting a thorough check through.  I'm planning on putting  the hard line back on. Along with a year correct intake.  Winter has started and time to spend money on other people's neglect

I guess I should state that GM knew why the valve should be there, but under their directions, I don't understand why my car i purchased did not receive the valve.

Thank you Mike, it's true on the 68 assembly manual for I don't own the 67 manual, I only noticed that it stated L48 car showing a drum brake in pic.  I just noticed the date at the bottom.  A lot of car show people I have chatted with never even knew about the valve on the frame.  It is such an interesting item on the car that is so intriguing to why some cars have it and others don't.
