They made just over 20,000 69 Z28 camaro's . Crossram intakes and headers could be ordered from the factory but came in the trunk and were dealer installed but not many were ordered that way. They could also be ordered over the parts counter. 4 wheel disc brakes could also be ordered from factory but only a handfull of cars were equiped as such. Cowl induction hoods were not installed or available until January of 69 and were fisrt seen on the Copo 427 cars. It was still a option on Z28s and SS cars after that point but was standard equipment on Copo cars. Quite a few Z28s made prior to May 69 had chambered exhaust but were replaced with regular exhaust as they prone to getting tickets for excessive noise. Many came with radio delete and then had a jobber radio installed at the dealership as they was a better profit margine that way. The after market has flooded the market with reproduction crossrams and chambered exhaust and 4 wheel disc brake setups. All Z28s from 67 to 69 came with 4spds and 12 bolt rear diffs and front power disc brakes. I have a 69 Z28 RS with a
cowl hood and 20000 original miles.
