These original pictures of the car show it had a single four barrel intake and carb with a custom cross ram air cleaner on top. Are you really going to send your GM out to drive around town in a temperamental cross ram car? I find that very doubtful.

It appears my hunch was right, even though that pic is black and white and a little fuzzy, it appears the hood springs are missing and it has a ratchet style prop rod you see on Corvettes from the period.

That's a fiberglass good. Which still leaves some unanswered questions about the steel hood dilemma.

Yes, it is a Fiberglass X-Ram Hood

Here is a 69 Camaro, Trim Tag is gone but the VIN number indicates that it is a 12B, 2nd week December 68, Relay for ZL2 hood is there and it also says 427 on Firewall. I know what you are thinking and what you will say, but I think the first COPO 9561 were made 2th week December 68
