Default 1969Z/28

I removed the rear seat from my 1969 Z/28. I saw markings on the cross brace, it looked to be yellow crayon that said DG3. My car is fathom green code 57. Would these markings mean dark green and the 3 being X33? My car has a small Norwood trim tag. 11D 1968 when built. Thanks! Sam

I saw the pictures at Atlantic City. Also saw the car at Carlisle in the spring. Great Car! So do you think that DG means dark green and 3 means X33? Thanks, sam

Yes, I think I recall something similar on another early car (can't confirm that without some checking that I can't do now).

I also remember a discussion of seeing the X3 or similar on the brace, prior to the change in the cowl tag to include x codes. I also remember someone saying that they had found DG (I was thinking it was on the cowl, but it might have been the seat back area) to signify Fathom Green.

I have photos of two different Camaros undergoing frame off restorations. One has an X-3 and the other has an X-44 written in grease pencil. Both were written very near the top passenger side of the rear seat devider.

Thanks for all the help guys! I guess I can assume that (DG) means Dark Green and (3) should mean X33 style trim group for Z/28. I have no paper work at all so this should help me a little. Thanks, sam [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I think Rick of Rick's 1st gen Camaro parts had a xram Z and it has DG on the firewall. If I recall it was a dark green car.
