No, missed that - I made the auction in AC, but forgot about the swap meet. Any shots of anything worth while?
That delivery would make a nice project - but probably to easy of a rebuild for you!

Early car, X6 chalk behind the seat. Pretty sure it's an L78/4spd car:

The chalk mark was applied to denote the trim package for that body and was abbreviated in relation to the X codes on the tags. This was done on early cars before the trim tags were coded. Obviously, "X6" refers to X66 = 396 SS car.

Would this also apply to 1968 Camaros built in the Norwood plant?

Sorry for the hi-jack here... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
 

I've never heard of the chalk mark on anything but the 1969s.

Hey, that's cheating. You cant send in photos of your own neglected car. They have to be photos of someone else's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
 

the X codes on the rear bulkhead were on later Xcoded TT cars as well... not just on early cars.

The car is actually Britsh Green originally: someone really liked red as it was done 2 times in that color.

Factory L78/M22 (numbers match M22 in car..), disc brake, etc...

Current condition:
