Pantera, the Green/White "Mexican" Camaro that was owned by Otis Chandler has the same paint scheme and L-88 hood as this white car. I haven't seen a '69 with the Motion emblems on the body. The emblems seem to have come out in very late 69.

So does anyone have a pic out of the magazines that show that hood from back then? I obviously am not up on the Camaro's like I am on the vettes.
Joe do you have the low down. Otis's car may not have been correct. I know I have heard stories about some questionable Camaro in a collection. Was it that same car? Pantera

Otis' car was all original. Here are a few pics.. This is the only 69 BM Camaro I've seen with the center stripe all the way to the front edge (originally).
COPO.. what, if any, stripes are on your '69? I've haven't seen yours yet. The "green meanie" '69 small block car also had the L88 hood, but had 2-Z28 stripes on it. I can't remember seeing any other legit BM cars with the L88 hood. All other 69s (that I've seen) had the stinger or Z28 Cowl hood, except the original hood on Kevin S's Yellow/Black SS427 which looks like a Stinger Scoop molded to a flat hood but was a 1 piece fiberglass hood. the car Otis had:

The yellow car is more like I thought all of them were like. Seems more like what Joel did back then. Was the Otis car a late 69?
I think this pic of a 68 BM Camaro is more what I thought all the hoods and paint schemes were like. Of course the customer was king.... Sorry I caused such a stir.. Pantera
