Here's one:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/198014767699

Neat!!!   I would have thought the GTO vs SS Chevelle would be spot on.  Almost the same car.....imo.

Thanks for posting.......

Everything new nowadays is a crap shoot....if it comes to it, hit Rock Auto....they have AC Delco ones, but they are probably the same thing you'd get at Autozone / Napa....

You could get try eBay...

Got mine coming........looking forward to it.

The first seat shown is a Firebird. Once you're familair with 'Birds and Camaros, the difference is obvious. Many people list them for sale incorrectly. They share similar frames so people post them as applying to both cars.

Spot on.

I've been using DOT 5 for years.....never an issue......Plus my master cylinder was rebuilt by White Post.

Gotta get a load of Coors......I need a blocker.....who's coming with me?

East bound and down rollin up & trucking....we gonna do what they say can't be done........LOL!

Last pictures shows the speedometer.  It's a repro. The mileage numbers are not original GM.  Look at an original GM speedometer, then this one.....you'll see the difference.  Neat car though.

yeah - I remember Pontiac doing these.....they had a Blue Bird (light blue in color) and this Red Bird.

Pontiac tried to appeal to the ladies.......

These are neat.

I forgot to mention the two original 69 Firebirds with tilt.....rectangular shaped pads too.

What does the casting area look like where it says "LOCK"? ...Joe

The pad where the word "LOCK" is moulded on should be rectangular shaped, NOT oval.
Never knew the difference until I saw 69 Camaros with original factory installed tilt wheel option.
They all had the same rectangular pad. 
70+ Camaros had oval shaped pads.

Typical.

Here's what's on Kelsey Tire's site:

Note for the 1st Generation Camaro only – Read Carefully

14" Goodyear Tire Fitments
Goodyear Polyglas tires were first used and going forward in April of 1969. For Goodyear RWL fitments for vehicle build dates beginning in April 1969 through October 1969, use Goodyear Polyglas SKU# CB5KL. November through December of 1969, a running change was in place with Goodyear Polyglas installations. Thus either the CB5KL or CB5KJ may be used. As you can see, this encompasses the first half of the 1970 build year. Prior usage from 1967 through March of 1969 was the Goodyear Speedway Wide Tread series.

15" Goodyear Tire Fitments
The Z28 cars of this generation are well-defined. 1967 735/15 Red Line SKU# CBBMV. 1968 & 1969 Goodyear Speedway Wide Tread GT E70/15 RWL STK# CB3EX. 1970 – see running change note above. F60/15 RWL STK# CB4GF or CB4GG, depending on the vehicle build date. The F60/15 RWL STK# CB4GG was used from January 1970 through the end of first-generation O. E. bias fitments.


Note:  They are referencing their own part numbers on the tires they sell.

I think Sauron327 runs a restoration shop....I THINK it's up in the northeast.....not sure.  He posts all the time here and sounds like he knows his stuff.

Seems strange to hide the body number if it is truly for "collector" purposes.

LOL!   It's for the collector who's gonna score $200K at Barrett Jackson in a year or two.
