1969 z28 emblem question
« on: February 12, 2021, 04:52:46 PM »
Hello fellow Camaro nuts. Trying to solve the correct emblem color for tailpan and grill emblems for 1969 Z28. I know the inside of the Z is red.  What is the painted portion of the 28. Is it white or silver? Was there a mid year change in color? I have seen several supposedly numbers correct cars and unrestored cars and both colors observed.

I have this NOS emblem I bought in the early 70's from the dealer, never been on a car,  the numbers look silver to me, was this

emblem used in all four locations on the car ? I have also shown the back with the part number for reference. Was this an emblem

 from '69 production, or something that was re popped later for parts stock ?

Thanks for the help. The fender emblems were red with silver like the one you posted.

Finger nail polish works great, even comes with brush.

Original rear panel emblem removed from my Z/28 in the late '70s. Been on my workbench since. Silver.

I just interrupted my breakfast cereal to go down and check my original front emblem...  NO PN embossed/cast in on the rear of it.  I may have an NOS one I purchased in the mid-70's also, but that's stored away somewhere...?

In earlier posts 3949681 and 3949682 are listed for the fender emblems. What is the part number for the rear emblem?
Thanks, Doc.
