My '69 Z28 Find

[69Znut]

That's correct, Plastic fill cap and Deep Groove Power Steering Pulley 3941105DD. I've owned my 69 Z/28 since 1977 and its what I see.

like the Chevelle.
and whats the part number on the p/s pulley? </div></div>

I think Donnie is referring to what some have found on some original `69 Chevelles. Camaros may never had the metal caps.
Here's an original 67K mile Jan. built `69 Chevelle.

Very nice. Enjoy it.

I have a 29K mile 69 survivor with a plastic cap.

[x77-69z28]

that is the same power steering cap as my 05A z-28. black plastic.

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.

Thanks a lot Eric! Means a lot to me coming from you!

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 70COPO</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> More than just the emblem...grill should be argent silver and the surround should be body color.....grill and surround must have been replaced at some point huh?? Cool find!! </div></div>

I never really checked to be honest. I will tonight. Its got some horrible overspray in the grill area. About 50% original paint remains.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: [email protected]</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Dave and Dan.....I would take that car down to the local spray car wash and gently hit the engine bay with some power water and take it home and Boeshield or WD-40 everything under the hood and then wipe it down or spray some on a rag and wipe all metal. Will look good and preserve some of what is left of the paint and toning. </div></div>

Thats the plan, Sammy. Just need to find the time. The motor compartment is dirt but with gentle cleaning we'll be able to preserve her!
