Re: Has anyone ever found a factory mistake?
 

From my many years of 69 Camaros:

Custom interior rear trim panels on std interior car
Full dash woodgrain on a std interior car
Black D96 stripes on one side, white on the other
6/7 tach in a L35 SS
ZL-1 with an E78 x 14 tire pressure label
Missing trunk lid Camaro badge on D80 cars
Mis-stamped VIN tag ‘123339N’. I haven’t seen it but there is supposed to be a COPO with a convertible VIN ‘124679N’
Several body tag errors: build dates of 09, 051, 061, NBR instead of NOR. Convertibles with no X code are common.

That's great. Reminds me of the early 80's when a chevette rolled off the line in Oklahoma City with chevette emblem on one side and a Pontiac emblem on the other (T100?? - can't even remember the Pontiac designation for their version of the Chevette - or as guys at the dealership used to call it - the "shove it").

69 Camaro we are doing in the shop right now has a hinge bolt lying on top of the cowl under the top of the passenger fender that was caulked over and left. We left it there in place.

I knew that there had to be some good mistakes out there, but some of these are more than I expected. Down right funny.
