Early69 RS SS 396 Camaro with goofy hubcaps

Somebody please correct me if I’m wrong but I vaguely remember the Lemans Blue 1969 Rally Sport ZL1 having silver-painted XT’s for many years. Am I remembering that correctly?

Awesome car and thread. I wonder about the owner paying 35.00 which today is 265.00 in today's dollars and knowing what Ralley wheels look like and getting those wheels. Wheels and tire always are the most important asset that either makes or breaks a car's visual impact.

No.

There were 12 Le Mans blue ZL-1s built, none having silver XT wheels.

XT wheels were painted to match the car if wheel covers were not ordered, black if they were. It is noted on both BCs. Camaros built with the P06 trim ring option had body color wheels. The paint used was enamel, not lacquer as used on the body.

This was the car I’m thinking of I just forgot to mention RS. It even looks to have trim rings.
