I have a friend that works in theft recovery with the Sheriff. He said it can be brought up long enough to take a picture. I wouldn't restamp it....Joe

Quote from: Stingr69 on July 07, 2026, 07:57:40 AMThe crayon marks seem like chalk today.  You can almost wipe them off with a swipe of your fingers on my 10A early build '69.

I also have different coding due to special interior color. Assume the paint guy needed to know what color to paint the exposed metal interior areas. Not a lot of data out there about this. We do have other color spec in the code examples.  It looks like (color)-3 or (color)-7 for example.


The X was the default. It meant that all the interior metal was to be painted black. B, R, & G for sure exist...maybe more....Joe

If you can find a 40669 & have it rebuilt by Fred Ballard would probably be the best....Joe

That's a very cool car but seems like a odd combination as most cars I've seen seem to have ths same color stripes as the vinyl top when the top was parchment or black.


Thank you. Daytona yellow always had black stripes...no matter what the roof colour was. Kurt told me years ago that it was not the norm....Joe

There is only one headliner for 1969. The best out there is from SMS in Canby Oregon. More money but worth the extra expense.....Joe

Decoding/Numbers / Re: 1969 Camaro SS cowl tag

That car should have the black in the grill instead of the silver. It should also have trim rings on the h/l bezels & those should also be painted black as part of the SS package.....Joe

You just looking for Z/28s or yellow/yellow cars?....Joe

If running hot is the issue, I would switch out that 4 blade fan & get the 7 blade, like a 772, with a thermo type fan clutch. I would also review the radiator to make sure you weren't sold a bill of good. Even though it's 3 row, what is the make-up of the 3 rows? Width of rows & fin count per inch is very important. I live in Tucson. These items are very crucial here. I just went through all this on my 440 cuda. My Camaros are stock so no problems with them.....Joe
