Trim is interior trim - black I believe.
Chassis # is the VIN. It should be the # on the title.

I don't think Suisse made as many 68's, which is why they are uncommon.

If there's a problem getting the tag pic (no hurry), the Chassis # would be helpful to me.

Thanks!

The last figs are like:

CHASSIS S9-685078

Thanx Curt, I somehow knew that i would get an answer from you!

..I will try to contact this guy in Sweden for a pic!
...so it´s that´s rare or unknown with Swiss Camaros...

..but what about the trim & chassie then??

I´got a guest from a guy here in Sweden that recently bought a 68 Camaro built in Switzerland and he wants to decode the cowl tag!

Here´s his numbers:

General motors suisse  s.s bienne
Make chevrolet   TS  BT
MODEL 8-CAMARO-12437-S      REL. J-666-6
MOTOR  MA                             COL  X367
CHASSIS S9-685XXX                TRIM  XK121

Here are mine but I think this was XA and they are 14x6 standard wheels for disc brakes.
Is it the center apperence you don´t think are right or ....?

OK I´ve have to look there one more time then! 

Those holes were factory-drilled for the lower attachment of the RPO V31 Front Bumper Guards; if V31 wasn't ordered, there were no holes. G31 was Special Rear Springs and the tall rear bumper guards with the rubber inserts, which was included in the Z/28 package.

Thanx for quick answer John!!
...but I could be possible that a X44 had this option you think?? ...or is it more likely they have been mounted as an after market option??

You put a box end wrench inside the subframe and tighten bolt head with a socket on the outside.

..I´m not following you here...??
You mean you don´t supposed to adjust it inside the bumper??

The adjustment slots for the front bumper are located where the large mount bolts into the subframe.  You should have 2 people to adjust it and do one side at a time loosely.  Protect the edge of the grill incase bumper slips down.

I understand that but isn´t it very hard to get a vrench in there for tightening the nut??

How can I know for sure that my 69 X44 came with large front bumper guards??
Cause I´ve been wondering about two mysterious holes that I thought every 69 has in the front sand plate, but now I guess theese are for mounting the large guards?!

How can you se that theese holes are drilled from factory or home made??



What else were includeed in the option G31??

I´ve just taken the front bumper off while I´m painting the grill and I saw that the bumper wasn´t in line with the front.
Is there some instruction out there in how to remount the bumper the easiest way so it´s easy to adjust it without taking it down each time?? 

There were 4 headlamp bezels:

all silver no chrome trim [non-style trim cars]
all silver w/chrome trim [style trim cars]
all black no chrome trim [non-style trim SS cars]
all black w/chrome trim [style trim SS cars]

Where did you find this table??   

i almost never seen a 69 Camaro with all black headlamp bezel!!   

I´ve the exact problem and I also think my seals are from Classic!   

It does look good however it is not any where near correct for a 69.

You have to explain yourself here!! 
In my opinion, and all my sales brochures from 1969, it´s as correct as it can be, except for the tiny detail mentioned above regarding how the raised white letters were shown!

I just bought this ones and and i think they look better than the GoodYear tires!

..but your original ones look even better!

Thanx Kurt, I forgot to check there first!   
...and the insulation is always molded as mentioned above?
