Interesting '69 Camaro #s L78, Burnished Brown
 
Cool color with a good looking trim tag. Looks like the block has been decked at some point but mildly so, and the numbers are still pretty legible. Does this VIN (124379N599390) still fall within the timeframe when Norwood was stamping partials on the deck versus at the bellhousing flange?

Wondering what's going on with the vinyl trim 'halo' stainless - almost looks like the clips were reinstalled in the wrong spot and the top is 'receding' more than it ought to.

Nevertheless...I wouldn't kick it out of the garage, if it could be had for the right price.

Passenger side top trim on the sail panel sure looks messed up. Cool car though

Front fenders both are poorly fit and have the common fender droop.
The pad stamping pic doesnt show the whole stamping and that VIN looks like it was added.

Heres the bad fender alignment

----Agree with all the above. Add to that the fact that the color is no where near correct Burnished Brown.....Bill S

Was thinking the same thing Bill, a few shades off for sure.

Camaro SS...
 
I'm just happy to see the SS emblem on the front grill isn't upside down :smirk:

What causes the fender sagging like that?

Not even close to BB. It's such a dark brown that it appears black in many pictures. And holy fender droop Batman! If this were a real L78 it would deserve much better.
