I thought all 69 Camaros came standard with an AM radio umless it was 'deleted' from the order form.....but, maybe I'm wrong on this one...anyone???
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An AM radio was never "standard". Any radio was optional/extra cost equipment. Most got it, but unless specifically ordered, you got the block off/delete plate, as well as a taped-in cardboard blackout cover that went under the dash where the speaker opening was, as well as a plastic plug in the door jamb where the antenna would normally pass through. Because these cars were already set up for a radio, including a hole in the plastic dash housing with 2 separate circular openings for the volume and tune knobs (the cluster even has VOL and TUNE molded into it, which gets covered by the block off/delete plate) as well as a speaker grille in the metal dash, and hole for the antenna, IMO, calling it a "delete" plate is ok, even though it was indeed optional equipment to actually have the radio installed. I stand corrected...Thanks Joe |

Almost all of the 69 Camaros were ordered with the extremely popular "COPO delete" option.
