You need to contact NCRS and get the dealer. http://www.camaros.org/geninfo.shtml#MyCarHistory
The blue could be any shade of blue. Sometimes it's the code 80 blue, sometimes a 63 wedgewood, sometimes its a different shade. Take the header and get the paint scanned.
What's the stamped axle code?

That will get you close. Still have to tint and do sprayouts for a match. I've done it many times.

Great story still, fun project

That an M or a V? BV would be 4.10 

[cook_dw]

Its BV

Pic is terrible.  Clean that area off. 

My previous post was deleted.  I need to fully wake up I guess.  Or get new glasses. 

BV would fit nicely for an L78.

Looks like an M to me. If it's a V, it's very and unusually small.

[boomer632]

Appears to be an M

[68 Ragtop]

It's clearly a V and the date is in perfect alignment with the VIN

Probably was an L78 as advertised. Motor rebuilt by 1971 and gears changed by 1972, unless the 1972 ad guessed wrong about the gears.

Wonder what gears are actually inside now?

It was a production Olds Toronado/Buick Rivera color for 1969.

So this is not the same color as the infamous 'Carolina Blue' 69 Z28 ?   It was described something like GMC fleet blue at Barrett a couple years ago but I dont know if that is correct either.
