I recently purchased a 1969 Camaro Z28 with DZ 302 motor. I noticed the engine oil dipstick is an aftermarket china dipstick.

Does the original dipstick have a green tip? And does anyone have one for sale?

I'm also looking for an OEM spare tire and jack. Located in Illinois

Thanks,
Dave

The Camaro Legends judges, based on many survivors studied in recent years, accept the flat handle as the original style released on ‘69. Camaros from the assembly plants. The round handle with green tip is a GM service replacement. I had an NOS GM green tip replacement dipstick on my Norwood build ‘69 Z28 for years but changed it to a clean used original flat handle style prior to attending the Nationals this year for Bow Tie with Legends check. Here are a few pics of both side by side.
