Re: Yellow Canadian L89
Attachment shown above is the only shot I have at this time. Why would a 69 car have a front spoiler and not a rear spoiler? Were all 1969 camaro standard front grilles painted silver by the factory??

All RS equipped cars received black grilles except for those painted black, which received silver grilles. Z28's followed the above protocol as well: Standard Z silver grille RS/Z Black grille RS/Z painted black would have a silver grille

Re: Yellow Canadian L89
The much discussed Canadian L89 Camaro here does not appear to have come through Belmont Chev when it was new... It was not ordered by Belmont Chev.

Re: Yellow Canadian L89
How can you say that when the GM docs posted on the first page say otherwise?

Re: Yellow Canadian L89
I believe the docs to be legit so I want to know how Charles can make that claim?

However it should be remembered that these cars were a very small part of the overall volume at a dealership. These were special cars that were handled by only one or two people when it came to picking specifications and ordering units. Even today there is clear understanding of what was ordered due to the relatively small number of cars involved. The L89 is not in the 'memory bank'.
