Wanted to post this data. He has several cars with OEM Polyglas tires. Late addition to the RPO sheets, April 1969. Here is one date cade for this site.
Example:
J= year, 1969, S= 4th month, April and 5 is the Gadsden, AL plant. This tire was on a 1969 Camaro SS396 built 04C. It all fits.

Interesting info. Thanks for sharing that, but I still suspect that most `69 Camaros and Chevelles that came equipped with F70-14's got the Speedway Widetreads unless they got used up at the plant. Then they may have switched over to the Polyglas N/S.
I have decided to use the Speedway Widetreads as the general consensus is that would most likely have been the one used on my April `69 Chevelle.
