Rough '69 Camaro Project, Interesting Options
 

I'm intrigued that this car, with all the obvious hackery, still has a 1969 blue-light four speaker stereo in the dashboard. Makes me wonder how it was originally ordered.... Even the 4-speed pedals and shifter reinforcement ring look way wrong.

Check out the floor from underneath - yikes.

If that's the original tunnel, its not an original 4 speed car. Look like a auto with console car. You can see the shifter hole is wrong and the auto trans cable hole is there.

I was getting ready to post the same thing.

One of the pics from the underside makes me beleive it may not be the factory tunnel.

Kind of wondering what the rear subframe is even attached to? Looks like the floor pans are just sitting in there. Jacking up on the subframe seems like a sure way to bend up the front sheet metal.

If you look close, it looks like someone just screwed a trim piece to the original tunnel. A lot of people think the jagged edges of an original assembly line torch cut hole isn't factory.

edit: just noticed the two rivnuts and the shift cable hole from an auto are there. Yup, auto tunnel.

So only the automatics got the cable hole? As opposed to it being part of the floor pan stamping itself?

yes - only console automatics got the cable hole

Pedals are from a later nova or Malibu 78-83

Correct. I believe there is a locating dent in the stamping so they knew where to punch the hole. The hole is a clue, not definitive. I know my father punched the hole in my 69 when he converted it to an auto so he could drive it.

This ugliness is my original tunnel.
