Not to be picky, but this highlights the problems seen with many restored cars.
Red car is missing the standard rocker trim. Blue SS-RS should have black rockers. Not that it affects the tag, but orange car should have white D96 striping, blue car white D90 stripe.

X11 - built with Style Trim Group [Z21]
X22 - Camaro SS 396 built with Z21 X33 - Z/28 built with Z21 [Z/28 includes hood and deck striping] X44 - base model, no optional trim X55 - Camaro SS 350 built w/o Z21 X66 - Camaro SS 396 built w/o Z21 X77 - Z/28 built w/o Z21 [Z/28 includes hood and deck striping] Z10 – Camaro SS-RS hardtop. All were white with orange Z/28 and D96 striping. Rocker panels remained white as did the rear body panel on those built with 396 engines. Despite what you may read, Z10s had no ties to the Indy 500. Z11 – Indy 500 Pace Car trim for Camaro SS-RS convertible. All were white with white top, orange Z/28 and D96 striping. Rocker panels remained white as did the rear body panel on those built with 396 engines. All 1969 Camaros were built with bright rocker panel trim. Z21 Style Trim Group included bright wheel opening trim, bright drip rail trim on hardtops, quarter panel louver trim, fender striping [D96], bright trim on tail lamps and headlamp bezels. Rockers were painted black for all colors except Dusk Blue, Fathom Green, Burnished Brown, Burgundy. Camaro SS included Sport Striping [D90], quarter panel louver trim, bright trim on tail lamps. Rockers were painted black for all colors except Dusk Blue, Fathom Green, Burnished Brown, Burgundy. Camaro SS built with 396 engine includes black rear body panel. A Camaro SS 350 built with Z21 will be coded X11. At some point Chevrolet invoked a loosely enforced ‘One Stripe Per Car’ rule. Camaro SS and Z/28 built with Z21 will not have the D96 fender pin striping. A very few early production Z/28s w/Z21 did have both. Cars built with Z21 and the DX1 front striping will have the D96 fender pin striping. D90 Sport Striping and D96 Fender Striping could be ordered on cars that did not include other striping. DX1 Front Accent Striping could be ordered on cars with D96. Elective optional striping did not affect the body tag. Rally-Sport equipment did not directly affect the body tag. RS included Z21 so the tag will reflect that. A few Z/28s and Camaro SS were special-ordered w/o striping. X codes remained the same. For reasons unknown, Fisher Body stopped using X44 on convertibles beginning March ’69
