The N66 wheel used the tall crowned stainless capped lugnuts and I believe the Firebird open face used the Pontiac lug with the black cap in the end.
There were approx 13k camaros built in April, how many firebirds?
if somewhere close to 3k cars were built the remembered ratios hold up.
Obviously there were integration issues... Dave Beem's 1 owner 69 burnished brown May built L78 RS SS had a Firebird bottom rear seat cushion in it.
The big thing in my eyes is according to the NCRS data William posted is there were only 500 camaros were built between April 3 and April 14
N626098 - NCRS build date 4/3/69
N626575 - NCRS build date 4/14/69

The earlier version of this tool did not work properly on the first day of Firebird integrated production.
Upon discovery the line was temporality stopped and ARO's were sent to the position where the Firebirds had had the lug nuts individually installed with hand air ratchets.
