Real Deal 1969 L89 Camaro

[69VN]

The overall restoration looks pretty good...nicely detailed although the leaf springs are incorrect for this car and I agree with Dave that the exhaust could've been fitted better. Not knowing when this car was built, early production '69 Super Sport Camaros &amp; Chevelles came equipped with chambered exhaust. But according to Jerry MacNeish's Definitive Fact book (4th. edition page 37) the chambered exhaust was discontinued ( with options Z/28, L34, L78, and L89) on November 25, 1968 because of what some local and state police might like to call &quot;excessive noise&quot;. It's odd the owner hasn't posted paper work or anything that would also help sell this car. I wish that at least he would have had posted pics of the cowl tag. He states the car was sold brand new in January 24, 1969---<span style="font-style: italic">assuming</span> if the car was built in December, 1968 (Norwood) this cars' cowl tag should have an X-22 (style trim group w/SS396) and black rear panel which it does have. Now for the tires, I have seen vintage pics (they don't have to be Goodyears but which for some reason I can't seem to find those pics right now [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]) with Uniroyal Tiger Paw F70-14 or Firestone Wide Oval F70-14 both brands in raised white letters...and also in plain white and red line tires. My car on the other hand (whether it's right or wrong) has the Goodyear Polyglas repros.
