So now after 40+ years of Camaro collecting I have seen one Polyglas tire that apparently came on a 69 SS Camaro. Are there more ? I think they made about 34000 SS Camaro's, plus the Chevelles, Corvettes etc. Based on examples I would not recommend someone restoring a 69 Camaro SS use a Polyglas because I think the odds of it coming from the factory that way are very very very very slim.

Hate to admit this, but I tend to agree with Charley on this
Steve it's Gadsden AL. Not OH

34,932 to be exact.
The same could be said about a 1970 L78 Camaro with a TH400.
