Help Identification on L78 lid?

[69LM1]

Digging parts from the garage to move out, I found this L78 lid. It's not from a 70 Camaro (I compaired it to mine). Any ideas what year/model this is from?







Thanks,

Looks like a 67-69 lid maybe? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

When I purchased this lid, I was told this came off a 1969 BBC.

'68 lid...

Aha!
I did buy a box of parts a few years back that was supposed to be from a 70 ElCamino L78. I bet this is from that lot of parts? I was thrown off because I compaired it to my 70 Camaro L78 and it was different. However, I guess the ElCamino's may noy have gotten the dual snorkel's?

Thanks guys, unless someone spots something different?

It's definitely a 1970 + open element top only,and not the larger diameter Dual top.

1970 L-78 Elcaminos could not get the dual snorkle.Dual snorkles came out much later on in the 70 model year,long after the L-78 option was cancelled for Chevelle/Elco which were only produced for the first 90 or so days of production,before the LS-6 came out.

Thanks, problem solved.... There could be a whole thread just on the different chrome lids through the years!

I have one from a swap meet years ago with CZ and 6487699 on the side of the silk screen and there are 2 silk screens. It's pretty black so hard to take a photo. Any clues on what year?
