For decades, whoever owns this car has been representing it as the "last Camaro convertible built" repeating the yarn about Chevrolet providing a plaque, now curiously missing.

It isn't even close to the last 1969 Camaro convertible built. There are at least 127 1969 Camaro convertibles built later than the car in question.

The latest '69 convert I know of, seen on ebay October 2020.

Tag does not compare with known original 02A tags.

From the ad:
"Original paint Cortez Silver with black interior."

The peeling clear coat and ugly D90 makes original paint unlikely.

From the ad:

So, someone did a frame off restoration and built it the way they liked it, well this one has #s matching and a window sticker to verify it is authentic! This is beyond special!

It is one of the worst reproduction stickers I have ever seen. At least 15 errors, including the omission of the required ZL2 Special Ducted Hood and Z87 Custom Interior.
