Jeff,
I have the feelers out now trying to dig up info on this car.
Kurt,
I would tend to agree with what you are saying and that is why I posted the data for number crunchers like yourself. But the other cues on the car still make me scratch my head and ironically, after I posted this, I read the thread started by Stefano on 05/31/02, "Dealer Order Procedures", in which Jim Mattison stated that there were supplier problems with the COPO rear ends. Again, thanks for the replies. As I said, this is food for thought. The car shows approx 30500 miles on the odometer. I am curious if anyone has ever confirmed any date coding on the Harrison radiator. My curved neck has a "F" on the recess between the two "O's". Thanks Chris

Since this post, I've written the radiator article: http://www.camaros.org/coolingsystems.shtml

OO is a 69 BB manual tank code. F is June.

I want to thank Ed James and Bob Johnson for their efforts. After finding out through NICB that the selling dealer code was 32613, I reached out to both of them. Although Bob did not remember this particular car, Ed suggested I check the rear tail light panel for emblem holes. The panel had a red Edelbrock sticker covering the three holes. Ed brought an old Scuncio Hi Performance emblem by and it fit. It was very cool to see it back on the car after 30+ years. I feel it's a significant piece of the puzzle. The car will stay mothballed until hopefully, more history can be uncovered on it. Thanks for the responses. Chris

I have never seen one with two studs unless one is broken off,they all had three. I should know I had them made,scrape of the puddy on yours and you will see where there was three studs. Here is one of Chris's other 69 Camaros from Scuncio(he has seven of them),it also has three holes in the back.

That is my race car. More like a street strip car. I purchased that car in July of 1990. It's an 04C X22 SS/RS 71B 712 interior BDY 308602 invoiced to 32613 on 04/25/69. I think the data on this car helps support the brown car. The car was a gutted race car when I bought it but it wasn't tubbed. It had a dana 60 on housing floaters with ladder bars and an aluminum head 454 with a glide. The rear quarter lips were rolled to fit a 30 inch tall slick. In 1991 I had two new gm quarters put on it and the car was put in primer. (Still have the receipt for the quarters-$500.00 for the pair) The tail light panel had charging lugs drilled in it because the car didn't have an alternator. When my body guy did the car, he repaired the lug holes but left these three other holes in the panel because he thought they were for a camaro emblem. After I found out about the brown car, I measured these holes and sure enough they matched the other car. That was then confirmed by the NICB. The car is still in primer.

You have 11 emblems and they all have a pin broken off?
