Window Sticker Mistake
I owned this car years ago. The window sticker has an error. Lets see who can find the error first. An interesting factoid is on the protect-o-plate the owner was enlisted in the Navy and stationed at the Charleston Naval Base, and listed his address as the USS xxx, which was a submarine tender..
I shared this with Kurt S, Mark B and a few others so don't cheat.

So this is a COPO, right? Isn't the 3.73 ratio odd then? Or did the customer special order this?

The 3.73 was the standard gear ratio for a Z/28. That option (G80) is indicating he purchased positrac...Joe

Could they have been charging more for the Firestone vs the GY tire at this time or vice versa?

I was not aware that the E70x15 wide tread was an option on any GM car in 1969. It was standard on the Z/28, COPO 9737 and the JL8 non Z/28 cars, but I have not seen it listed as a stand a lone option before.
I am glad that you posted the original sticker.

Not sure how it happened but the E7015 tires were included with the Z28 package. The Goodyear was the primary tire used, and Firestone SC200 were probably installed on less than 20% of Z28's. They were equivalent tires no price difference.
