69 Camaro VN & Trim Tag info????????
Just bought this camaro last friday. VN 124379L517209.
Appears to be an original 4sp car,clutch pedal under carpet and BB heater core. Rallye Green? w/factory cowl hood. Trim Tag: ST69,124379 VN239830, TR 712,79 79 PNT. No X code! and I don't understand the "VN" vs "LOS" or "NOR"???? Have never seen one without an X code. Could this be an early "Van Nuys" car?? HELLLLLP. Please & Thank you.

Van Nuys/Los Angeles....don't think they used X codes out there...

Re: 69 Camaro VN & Trim Tag info????????
VN=Van Nuys also known as LOS for the Los ASngels Planty. they chnaged the Cowl tag to VN druing the 69 production run. The VIN plate kept the L for Los Angeles. These cars did not get an "X" code on any of their cowl tags.
NOR= Norwood Ohio assembly plant and starting in Dec of 68 I beleive they started using the "X" codes. This being said , its one of the major reasons to get all Doc's when you are buying what is said to be a Big Block SS Camaro from the Van Nuys plant. Kurt S and the folks at the Camaro Reseearch Group Have some outstanind facts withing their web site. http://www.camaros.org/numbers.shtml#CowlTag Also go to their main page for the site plenty more to keep you busy reading |

What's the #'s from the top line of the cowl tag?
Should have a 12 bolt if it's a BB. May have a broadcast sheet above the gas tank...... |
Re: 69 Camaro VN & Trim Tag info????????
I think VN was the Fisher body plant and Los Angeles was the Chevrolet assembly plant...

Re: 69 Camaro VN & Trim Tag info????????
It was LOS on the cowl tags til December 68. Then it switched to VN. No idea why. Same plant.

Sorry, my bad. I got confused....
The *bottom* line is what wasn't posted yet. The axle code should help tell if it's the original axle or not. http://www.camaros.org/numbers.shtml#RearAxleNumbers 1 or 2 fuel lines? Should have discs. Glad you like our CRG site! |
