Did all the 69 RS camaros have the front turnsignal lens trim? i have an early 11d LA built car that doesnt have the trim. Its very original but someone could have replaced the lens. Thoughts ? thanks
Only early RS cars had the trim rings. What the cut off was? I do not know.
1969 front RS turn signal lens trim

My LA built 10B RS Z/28 had the original Trim on it when I got it.
Here are some Factory Take offs.
nice. what is the date of the car those came off of?
Swap meet Cores.
Date unknown
As of the 12-68 rev of the dealer order form, bright trim was no longer listed as part of Rally-Sport equipment.
Existing inventory was randomly consumed in production into early 1969. John Zs March-built Z/28 had the trimmed lenses.
I know little modifications were made to JohnZ's car with the emblems and all, I wonder if those were changed. March would by far be the latest I have seen. Most of the original December January cars I have seen don't seem to have them. But again they could have been swapped for some reason.
John's car was 02D, btw. Shipped 2/28.
My 10B 68 RS/Z does not have them. I figured there were removed before I bought the car.
My 11D Nor had them
My 12B Nor does not
Good reference point!
My 01C NOR '69 RS does not have them.
