Power front discs were included with Camaro SS equipment, required with COPOs 9560 & 9561.

From a reliable source, SS cars could be ordered with manual drum brakes but all COPOs had PWR brakes.

[/ QUOTE ] Actually this site is probably the most reliable source you can find anywhere, and these guys are correct... there were definitely no copo OR SS cars with drum brakes in 69. I know of no exceptions.

Very reliable on the 69 info, from this site actually. It wasn't normal but it was possible. NO COPO's (DAMN) but the SS yes. I need an example.
We just got sold of a SS396 Chevelle ordered without disc. |

Front power disc brakes were mandatory options on both.

There was no way to delete it. http://www.camaros.org/suspen.shtml#Brakes 69 Chevelle - I think that's a different story...
