1969 Camaro Parts & Restoration Specifications
The 1969 Camaro marked the last of the first generations and
is arguably the most popular. While it shared the same basic body style as its
earlier siblings, it featured entirely new, more aggressive looking sheet metal
and an entirely revised grille. The familiar coke bottle shape was flatted more
to give the 1969 Camaro a lower and wider looking stance. The grille was much
more angled and the parking lamps were moved to the lower front valance below
the bumper. Other than the roof itself, the 1969 Camaro doesn’t share very much
sheet metal with earlier models.
The 1969 Camaro was available in many different
configurations. From a plain Jane sport coupe to asphalt eating Super Sport,
there was something for everyone! All 1969 Camaros shared the same body unlike
the Chevelle and were available in either coupe or convertible. Buyers could
choose from the base model Sport Coupe, drag strip ready Super Sport, or road
racing Z-28. The Rally Sport option with hidden headlights could be added as a
separate packing to any of those models.
Interiors were only available with bucket seats and were
available in a variety of colors and styles. Standard interiors were available
in Black, Dark Blue, Red, White, Light Green, or Dark Metallic Green. Buyers
who ordered a deluxe interior received unique door panels with molded in arm
rests and Comfortweave seats with color choices of Black, Dark Blue, Light
Green, Dark Metallic Green, or Red. Even rarer was the deluxe Houndstooth
interior with unique pleats in Black, Orange, Yellow, or White. A fold down
rear seat was available but very rare. An optional console was available with
our without gauges. The buyer could have ordered a number of different exterior
colors including Tuxedo Black, Butternut Yellow, Dover White, Dusk Blue, Garnet
Red, Glacier Blue, Azure Turquoise, Fathom Green, Frost Green, Burnished Brown,
Champagne, Olympic Gold, Burgundy, Cortez Silver, LeMans Blue, Hugger Orange,
Daytona Yellow, or Rallye Green. Two tone color combinations were available in
Glacier Blue/Dover White, Azure Turquoise/Dover White, Glacier Blue/Dusk Blue,
Dusk Blue/Glacier Blue, Olympic Gold/Dover White, and Burnished
Brown/Champagne.
To complement the wide variety of available colors were the
available drive train combination's that could be opted for on the 1969 Camaro.
Base power was had by one of two available six cylinder engines. Buyers who
wanted more power could opt for a V-8. Manual transmissions were either 3
speeds or 4 speeds. The 2 speed Powerglide was the standard transmission and a
3 speed Turbo Hydramatic was optional.
About 243,000 1969 Camaros were produced.
