Confirmed via a 69 L89 broadcast sheet.

While on the subject of L89s, were there any confirmed '68 El Camino's with the L89?

I’ve never heard of a real 1968 L89 Chevelle/El Camino.

Unfortunately I don't have the "Ordering Procedures" section of the 1969 price schedules book (if there was such a section in the 69 book ... They had it in 67 and earlier, don't know about later).

It may or may not have any relevance to 69, but just in case, in 67 the Engine "OPT" box on the 67 broadcast sheet:

- 396/325 was a Q
- L34 was an S
- L78 was a T

Wonder why no R ??

Default Order form

I forgot I had this photo. Perhaps this helps?? This is a Baltimore built L89.
Let me know if you need any additional information on the car.

Cheers,
Marty

I've never seen that section in 69.
R wasn't used in 67 or 68. In 69, it was the L65.
