Funny thing on GM's calculations because they have a % column for all their colors, they first subtracted the number of special and prime cars from the totals, then did the calculation based on that total.

There were 13,488 1968 Camaros produced in "OO" Corvette Bronze.

Does the book have numbers for O2?

Or better yet big blocks with a/c?


Thank you for posting this.  What a great reference to acquire.

Book has numbers for two-tone paint colors where applicable but not for a combination of color with vinyl or convertible top.
A/C ECL's are not listed individually.

Paul,  Lot of great information your sharing with use. We all appreciate it. Would you happen to have information on "Special Paint" (- -) cars from 68 or 69? Thanks.

I restored a pair of LOS corvette bronze cars with white vinyl tops and A/C. One was a BB RS/SS and the other SB SS and built the same week or so if I recall?

I will see what I can do. I have trouble resizing my pics. I also had a corvette bronze BB with a black top and very cool original white houndstooth interior with headrest. No console though, auto on the column and it felt really weird driving it.

Thats not weird that is just cool...  What ever happened to that car?


There used to be a CB big block car down in Oak Ridge TN area back in the late 90's.  Non vinyl top car & I want to say 4 speed.  Makes me wonder whatever happened with that car.
