No pic of the trim tag. Be interesting to see if it has interior code 729.

Why does the interior put up a red flag?

The only 69 Camaro conv that came with houndstooth was the pace car

You mean Houndstooth was not an RPO for "regular" Camaro ragtops?
Wow, didn't know that! |

Wow, didn't know that! </div></div> Yes it wasn't durable enough to be used in a convert (fading and staining). I was called to inspect the car about 2 years ago. I had the potential buyer send me pics of trim tag and stampings. I told him I rather not waste my time or his money and told him to stay away. It was for sale at a exotic car dealer in Nassau County Long Island. I'm pretty sure its the same convert with houndstooth interior.

Wow, didn't know that! </div></div> Somewhere out there you can find the order sheets and the boxes to check for houndstooth are xed out.

I saw it during an NCRS event and my comments were identical at the time. Interesting how it is not listed in the "sold" section of their website? Dan

The Camaro Bible way back when. You can see how you could not check the box for houndstooth in a convert.

That must be an early order sheet w/o 714 or 720 trim. Sure was a good decision to not offer houndstooth in converts though. Seats usually look pretty sad in survivor Pace Cars.
