I think they came that way from the factory. If they had not I think the rims would have been blue body color.

if you had a buildsheet would it show the trim rings or would that be just a default build when it showed the XT rims? im really curious as i have a couple of 69 ta's that came with the regular wheels and poverty caps.

A 69 SS without optional Rally Wheels would just have XT rims painted body color and the center cap only. No trim rings.

Very cool thread I hadn’t read until now. I love weird, “incorrect” things the factories did on these old cars. Just reiterates that imperfect cars were being made by imperfect people who were just working for a living, not making 1000 point cars to be judged.

I think I’d probably have to put the “weird” wheel setup on the car, be that the goofy caps or the dog dishes. That’s what makes a killer survivor car the special car that it is, but that’s just me. Charley, thanks for sharing.

Trim rings were available on any 69 Camaro without hubcaps as RPO P06.
I don't know if they were included or optional on Firebirds.

Hey Charley could you please check the underside of your console lid is either flocked or not flocked?

It’s flocked

Cleaning up nicely.
