The cross ram, and headers, were dealer installed options.
The 1969 Camaro was produced for an extended period of time, as the 1970 was actually a 1970 1/2. That color combination is fairly common, Fathom Green and Dover White. You could probably research it to find out if it was really sold by Berger Chevrolet, which was a noted high performance Chevrolet dealer that specialized in the performance line. Berger did a fair amount of COPO ordering, as well as doing a lot of dealer installations on that type of part. I seriously doubt it is a $100K car, unless it has some special heritage. I've seen complete numbers matching RS/Z-28 cars with all the options, including the cross ram, headers, chambered exhaust, and 4 wheel disc brakes, all verified, not bring that even being well restored.

Not many remember the 69 Camaro was manfactured well into 1970.
Can't remember if tooling for the new Camaro or some kind of strike delayed the "70 1/2" production. Sort of like the 82 Corvette. Produced months into 1983. You want a Barrett-Jackson killer car? Find the "one of one" legitimate 1983 Corvette!!! (yes, that's sarcasam) |

The 70 was delayed because of manufacturing issues at Fisher Body. Back in the day major tooling changes for signicant model year changes were a big challenge for all the car companies and they made the dies like they had to last decades (which they could). Manufacturing of aircraft, cars, etc has changed so much over the years it's amazing.
