Default Re: My '69 Z28 Find

Steve, I dont have any information only my observations over the years.
that either kind could be on a 69.
so it sounds like the majority of Camaros got the plastic cap and the majority of Chevelles got the metal cap.
but sense both types were used in 69 you could be the minority. as Bills car is my Chevelle also has the plastic cap and it appears original to the car.
and I dont want some judge at a show taking off points and telling me its NOT correct.

sorry about getting this off track Dan

Hi Donnie,

I missed your reference to Chevelles. My understanding is that for Chevelles the plastic cap was a mid year introduction. Again I was exclusively talking about the Camaro. Thanks for the clarification.
