I have a set of door mirrors for a 1969 Camaro I would like to have restored because they are "Originals".

What is a "set"?  1969 Camaros only had one door mirror, on the driver's side.

My car came with one on passenger door.  This is incorrect??    Don

I found some pics of the NOS Spoiler for a 1969 Camaro....Don  P.S.  Having trouble loading spoiler pics...file to large.

A guy on e-bay was selling one awhile ago and it had numbers "ink stamped" in yellow.  Number was : GM# 3938689   That's what I have here...hope it helps you.    Don

That's the correct number according to the 69 AIM, UPC D80 sheet A1. You didn't happen to save the ebay photo(s) did you? Would be interested to see the ink stamp.

No, I did not save photo...I wish I would have....Don

I have a set of door mirrors for a 1969 Camaro I would like to have restored because they are "Originals".  Does anyone have a company name that does this type of restoration??  Anybody with some sort of info on this matter please feel free to chime in.  Thanks guys.....Don

My father was a dealer in the 50-70's.  Select vehicles often had vinyl tops installed to provide ADP.  (additional dealer profit).  Although unusual to have brown vinyl top on Z/28.  Rarely have I heard of a Z/28 to receive an aftermarket vinyl top unless there was a either a defect or a warranty claim.  Nevertheless, I also was the proud owner of Z/28.  As a college student I ordered a new 1969 Burnished Brown Z/28 with white stripes...best color ever!  Interior in my car had black carpets & dash with white seats and door panels.  Also it had a dealer installed under dash 8 track player; wood grain dash; front and rear speakers, tinted glass, cross ram in the trunk (never installed and sold with the car); cowl induction hood, spoilers front and rear and it did not have a console. Also, it also had a factory installed 1970 Z/28 steering wheel and the car was built in Norwood, Ohio.  Unfortunately I sold the car to pay for grad school and would love to have the car back. I trust that it is a survivor...

KobeSauce, I have to reply to your short story relating to a 1969 Camaro Z/28 in Burnish Brown/with Brown Vinyl top.  That vey car you described was my first "hearts desire" back in the day.  A fellow man ordered it, (1969 Camaro Z/28 w/Brown Vinyl top) and got drafted in the Army to fight a war in Vietnam.  The car sat on the lot into the 1970 model year, and I thought if I waited long enough, I could strike a bargain.  Well, long story short, I waited to long, and some lucky fellow spotted this shining gem and bought it.  This has been the only such car I have ever come across.  All other Camaro with this color, (Burnish Brown) do not have vinyl tops.  This color is still my favorite.  I now own a 1969 Camaro SS/RS Garnet Red 4-speed Big Block Camaro.  Hope you find you dream car someday...........Don

Oakly SS and C. Norton, Hey guys, thanks a lot for all the helpful pictures that I asked for.  This gives me a good visual now.  Selecting the proper tire size will be easier now.  Thanks to all again!!!!    Don

Phoenix, bias-ply 28.5" x 9" on a 4.5" back-space rim fits with no modification.  I have pictures.

Pictures would help...thanks!

We all here understand it hard to say "goodbye" to your first love.  But just remember, you'll always have those memories of this car "forever".  It hard to let go of a ride after years of hard work and sweat.  Been there done that too.  Someday you'll find another, that you'll have to have, and the process will begin again.  Happy Holidays!    Don

Would anybody know off hand, what size slick, in a 15", would fit a 1969 Camaro wheel well opening???        Thanks!!     Don

That's what I thought....I just wanted to be sure before I purchased a used set.  Thanks for the info and your time!     Don

I have a question on these center caps for rally wheels.  Will 15 x 8 rally wheel centers, fit 15 x 7 rally wheels???  Thanks guys!    Don
