Don't know about the biscaynes, but I bought a 69 firebird complete 4-spd body less motor and trans that was an original 400 car and it had the lines also in front of the radiator...never saw that before or after. I took the hood only to Englishtown to sell, and a guy asked about where was the car and then he asked if it had the ps lines...he insisted to go to my house that night and he bought the whole car !! Car also had the guage setup. Was not a T/A, but I always wondered if it was something special??

I think I may have left one get away !!

1969 Trans-Ams also Grand Prix and Firebirds w/ 3.36:1 and higher rear axle included the PS coolers (2.93:1 and above for A/C cars)...see below pic.
Was there even an RPO for '69 Chevy PS coolers, if not they may've been part of a B07 Police or B02 Taxi packages?

What I <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">meant</span></span> to say was that I have never heard of such a thing from the factory on any 69 Chevrolet product.

Nor have I and I have owned a LOT of the full size Chevrolets (including 427 police interceptors) over the years and had never seen anything similar to this.

If it's on the car that john has or is looking at maybe it was transferred over from another car.
