Have seen this on others. Seems like there is often one month or period when the stamp marks don't align. $1,600 distributors and alternators get re-stamped. No one re-stamps voltage regs. There are so many of them used across many GM makes

Was the sun visor paper display - Guide to the New Ignition Lock System used throughout the model year? Or only on the early cars?

How does this tag look. Lots of dum dum ver the rivets so it looks like it could have been taken off. Things don't seem to line up

I have only seen Regal Lite as the manufacturer of the plastic rear convertible windows. Usually there would be a second supplier. LOF was the main glass supplier with some also supplied by PPG. Was there another supplier for the plastic rear convertible window?

Date is Julian and cast into into the driver side of the MC. The front bale wire clasp obscures the first digits

Has anyone used a digital photo album for their car show display. Would want to show all the restoration photos and parts restoration

For anyone that visited MCACN this year - Was wondering what your thoughts were on the Legends display and Legends Judging. We had 3 great cars - 68 Yenko, 69 Yenko, 69 ZL1  This was our 2nd year at MCACN. Would like to hear what we could do better. How to make the display better. In the past, we did have a seminar to go over Legends judging. thanks

Any feedback on the Legends Judging and display? The ZL1 was a bit hidden. This year we moved to a better location and could have 3 first gen cars.  Hoping next year to have 4. What would anyone change in the display.  Can't have a lift, used the Vintage lift early Friday.

I don't think anything has ever been deducted for show chrome. Have seen deductions for scratches, rub marks, and fit. Nothing for being too shiny. Deductions are made for stainless fuel / brake lines. Legends Manual also doesn't say anything about deducting for show chrome. Would like to learn the source for this

This is from the 1967/1968 Camaro Legends Judging Manual. Did not copy photos but the photos are in the Manual

Calipers are painted semi-gloss black.  All machined surfaces on the calipers will be unpainted natural metal. The calipers for 1967 and 1968 are a 4 piston design and carry a casting number of 5455533 on the outer half and 5455530 on the inner half.  There are two different brake line sizes found on the calipers. It is believed that the early 1967 used a 3/8 inch hex flare nut on the caliper for both right and left. The later 1967 and all 1968 used the 7/16 inch hex flare nut on the left side caliper and a ½ inch hex flare nut on the right side caliper. All of the mentioned lines use a 3/8 inch hex flare nut for the hose end of the spring wound steel line that connects the two together. The caliper is mounted using two 7/16 inch coarse thread black finish hex head bolts and lock washers. With the upper bolt retaining the semi-gloss black painted special bracket to secure the hose using a black "U" clip. The bleeder valve is silver zinc/cad plated and does not use any type of cap. The caliper brackets are yellow cad/zinc plated and numbered 3913798R and 3913797L.

Drums were black

No - Only 1968 cars had the sheathing. Kurt is right that it was also used in 1969 for cars with a rear speaker. I do not know if second gen cars also received this sheathing for the rear speaker. Also, do not know about other Chevy or GM models that might be a source

Dr. Sloan's Z28 and the 2 69 Camaros at MCACN were in the Legends judging program. The contact for the 1000 point Bow Tie class at the Nationals would be Karl Scheffy.   email bowtie@camaronationals.org

Think this is covered in the 1969 Camaro Legends Judging Manual

Might want to contact Jerry MacNeish at Camaro High Performance
