And - to summarize, both the '70 Camaro & Corvette were delayed for the same reason - May '69 Strike.

Sam,
Nope
....apparently only the Corvette was delayed due to a strike. Per StealthBird's response, above,...
"The 1969 Camaro and Firebird extension run to November/December 1969 was not due to a strike, it was because of tooling issues (specifically, the failure by Fisher Body to create the rear 1/4 panel dies for the 1970 model). I think the "strike" reference may be in regards to the Van Nuys plant strike, but that didn't have anything to do with extending the 1969 model year."
Evidently just a coincidence that production of the '69 models of the two different vehicles was extended several months.
