You missed the paint and interior codes.

Does it have:
disc brakes
1 or 2 fuel lines
10 or 12 bolt

Just reply to this topic, you don't need to start another one.

Hi Guys,
Gary, I am trying to research the selling dealer of my 1969 Camaro.

You have the closest Body number to my Camaro,which I have been able to find thus far.

Mine is 301731 and your is 301713, which is only 18 Bodies from mine.My build date and vin are much later however.

Would you mind providing the selling dealers name and address?

Thanks in advance,

Stefano

Body number; 301731. Has anyone found any other Body numbers close to this one?

Thanks.

Nope, it's all by itself. :)

Stephano,
Tell us why your body # is so close to an 03E but has a much higher VIN and much later build date. ;)

This is a good question and I don't know the answer. Kurt could provide a better/more accurate answer. I can speculate that the two orders/close body numbers were placed at close to the same time, but that it took longer to build my, same trim level Camaro due to some other special parts which may have been required and were not readily available to complete the car?

All you need is one part that is short for an order to be held until the part is in stock. That's the job of the scheduler, making sure that all the parts are there to build the car, cause once a car is started, it's going thru the whole assembly process.

Stefano, the car that you are have is a COPO isn't it?
I ahve noticed that most COPO body numbers are lower that the other cars manufactured during the same time frame.
I had always heard that the COPO's were more or less batch built...
So it would make sense for Chevrolet to wait until orders were accumulated and then have the axles or other special parts manufactured.
I would also believe that most JL8 cars would also exhibit this characteristic.

My Camaro has a pretty good paper trail and must have sit waiting for parts.

My 69's cowl is stamped 09E and was scheduled for production on Tuesday10/7/69 which would be 10B. My Vin 9N695XXX falls outside the range for cars built in September of 69.

I wonder why the Vin doesnt fall into the range of the 09E Cowl tag. Does Fischer Body install the Cowl and VIN tag? If not, when and who places the Cowl and/or Vin tags during the assembly process?

Your car was shipped 10/8. It had to be built before then.

Your VIN fits 09E. 09E is the body start date, not the finish date.
You need to read the assembly article, http://www.camaros.org/assemblyprocess.shtml.

Thanks Kurt.

After reading the article and seeing that the trim tag was added first and the vin tag was applied on the assembly line, the dates and numbers make sense. Also, 09E(Mon.,Tues.) and 10A(Wed.-Fri.) are the same week. The days between 10 B and 09E could be as little as 4 days. Phil

Yes, it is a COPO 427 Camaro.
