factory options

[jonijerry]

the original 68 i bought (and still have) is stickered as  'British Racing Green' for exterior color with 'ivory' interior yet all the aftermarket interior colors are parchment or 'off white' ........ does anyone know how many of these were manufacturered ?...... mine was made in canada ... also, anu suggestions on where to buy the best interiors (lutty chevy seems to have the best color match)
Thanks a Lot .....Jerry

No Camaros were made in Canada - all of them sold in North America were made at Norwood or Van Nuys.

If you mean your car was SOLD new in Canada,you can contact GM Canada @ 888-467-6853 or outside of Canada  (905)644-4060.they can mail you some good onformations on your car for about $50 or so.

Canadian firms have supplied parts for U.S.-made cars for decades - very common.

FYI, there were actually two versions of white deluxe interior in 1968, code 730 (parchment-white) and code 711 (ivory-pearl parchment).  Why GM did this is beyond me.  730 coded cars have black headliners with white plastic-vinyl trim (looks terrible) and code 711 cars have black headliners with black plastic trim (much bettter look).  GM did not keep track of the different versions of interiors sold.  Although all of the cars shipped to Canada are in the GM of Canada records.  If you had access to all of these records, you would only know how many white interior cars were shipped to Canada.

I think PUI is the only vendor making seat covers now.  Al Knock makes the deluxe door panels,
