69 Z28 Stock Flat Hood
 

OK guys need some more opinions here I am looking at a numbers matching Z without the cowl induction option is it true that IN REALITY THE FACTORY ONLY BUILT 10,026 Z/28'S W/ THE 'SPECIAL DUCTED ZL-2 HOODS'* SO, MANY SEEN HAVE BEEN ADDED BY INDIVIDUALS OR DEALERS. i am attaching a few pics.

I would say they only built around 4-5 thousand Z's with the duct hood, maybe less. Sometime maybe in late December of 68 you could get one, but doubt it. If the car was standard interior, I don't think a flat hood even came with insulation back then. Very few Z/28's had factory installed duct hoods I believe. Sam

I agree Sam. If there were a little over 10,000 Camaros with the cowl hood, 3675 were Pace Cars, around 800-1000 were COPOs and then add in some SS cars and that leaves 5000 or less for the Z28's.

I believe that around 10% of the -69 Z28 cars had the special ducted hood from the factory.
My friend Hans has a nice one that came with a flat hood, but had the hood switched in the seventies.

I don't believe the insulation is correct for a 'flat' hood. It's true, very few Z/28s originally had the cold air hood but it seems all of them have one now. When I bought my Z/28 last year it had a GM ZL2 hood on it that was added back in the 80s. I bought a used flat hood, painted and installed it. Now it looks like it did from the factory.

Wow, just noticed that this was my 69th post. My favorite number https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Me to. My car came with the works when I got it. But from the factory it was a flat hood no spoilers car.

My 69-Z came with the flat hood and thats the way I am going to leave it.

Re: 69 Z28 Stock Flat Hood
 

Flat hoods, without the deluxe interior which included sound and noise proofing, didn't come with hood insulation. I am pretty sure. Standard interiors with flat hoodshttps://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gifinsulation. Sam
