In 70 could you get the woodgrain on the instrument panel and wheel without the custom interior group (that would also include the woodgrain on door panel and shifter console)?

the dash face, steering wheel and center console woodgrain were not related. Each was an option. My old '70 had all three ontop of a custom/deluxe interior.

Phil and Jeff(aka owners2), I have misc pics of the Black Calif stripe delete 70 Z-28 as the seller sent pics to me when it was for sale. Just one more Camaro I regret not buying(i.e. Marty Wright 5K Black 70 Z)
Does the Black Stripe delete car have ANY docs proving the car ????
I will attach a few pics as I dont have them on my Photobucket acct.....
Guess my 175KB pics are too big to attach........

Ray...in 1970 there was an interior accent group option (RPO Z-23) that would give you the simulated burled wood on the dash around the gage cluster and on the steering wheel. If you also had the center console around the shifter, you also got the burled wood treatment on the console as well. The Z-23 interior accent group option cost $21.10. My Forest Green 70 Z28 has this option with the standard interior. I hope this answers your question! Sorry Mosportgreen, you're wrong on this one!

Chuck when i ran into the owner at the camaro Nationals last year i was told (but didn't see) that there were 2 build sheets to the car & that the 1st was for the car being done as a Copper car & the 2nd is showing that they sent the car back to be painted black. I took a really good look at the car even inside the trunk area & you can see copper under the black in the hard to get areas such as in the trunk jamb ribbing & where some black is actually chipped & flaking off in areas.I was really pissed i had left my camera with my car,i never ran into the car again!

"If you also had the center console around the shifter, you also got the burled wood treatment on the console as well."

I disagree with the above statement!!!

I maintain that the woodgrain shift plate ONLY came with the Custom Interior. The D-55 console with Std Interior came with Black Shift plate.

Here is my source Chuck...

Illustrated Camaro Buyers Guide second edition by Michael Antonick published in 1987.




On page 74, this book clearly states my above statement. I guess ya learn something new every day huh Chuck!

70 Forest Green Zee, I stand corrected.....There are not enough interior accent Z-28's out there........
