Thank you. Didn't have the manual.

Trying to piece together a stock AM FM Blue light stereo for install in my '69 Z28.  Does anyone know the part number for the left side kick panel speaker grill? Also, can anyone tell me if a March '69 car had rear speaker housing covers with the jute padding.

William and David thank you both for a reply. I need to dig deeper on the rear axle code. Car has evidence of being raced in the day. So trans was probably replaced with no vin on it.

Trying to decode my '69 Z28 rear for a date.  It reads BU022G2   I know it is a 373 posi, but is the date February 2nd?  This is a Van Nuys car with production date 03-03-69 

Also the car has a M22 trans. I see P9B18C. I believe it means Muncie 1969 February 18 and 'C' for M22. The date is correct for a March 3rd assembled car. My problem is I see no vin number stamped anywhere. I think Van Nuys stamped them on top of the case, however nothing there. Question...is it possible it could still be original to the car without a vin number?

Thank you for the responses. That helps me a lot!

Can someone tell me the difference between a Holley 1850 and a Holley 4053 and whether the 1850 could work on an original 302 69 Z28 as a substitute for a 4053?

Any advice would be appreciated as to brand and weight oil to use in my '69 Z28. The car has an M22 trans and posi 3:73 rear. Looking to change both.

Do you know the capacity of the system?  Owner's manual doesn't indicate it.

I added power steering to my `69 Z28. I'm reading mixed opinions as to use regular power steering fluid or ATF fluid. Which is preferred and what is the capacity. This is a unit sold by one of the reproduction suppliers and fit as OEM without issues

Should a M22 trans in a 69 Z28 have a vin number on it? If so, where do I look? The date code is there and corresponds with production. If no vin number does it indicate replacement trans?

Can someone tell me if the '69 Z28 ever had the M22 transmission as an option. I'm new to Camaro's and discovered my recently purchased Z28 has one. The car was a LA build in early March 1969. It has been verified as a original real Z

Thank you. Sent carb to be rebuilt, so they will be changed

Was there ever a in line fuel filter on the '69 Z28?  Just acquired my first Z and surprised that I can find no evidence that one never existed on the car. I am putting on a new gas tank and rebuilt the Holley. Car will not be judged, so I am considering adding one in to the new fuel line.

Thanks for all the replies. 93 octane readily available here in Western PA. I'm just trying to eliminate the ethanol which is hard on carb gaskets. For as little as we usually run these toys, I'm OK with the $7.00 per gallon charge for aviation fuel which is rated at 100 octane and skip the ethanol.

My holley carb needs rebuilt. I suspect it is the ethanol that took it's toll on the gaskets. Part of the reason I want to eliminate it.
