I was thinking more like a build sheet, protect-o-plate, or original window sticker. If it was a legit option in '69, it would have to have a specific option code regardless of build date or rarity.

In '67 the "bench seat" was referred to as a "Strato-back" front seat with folding center arm rest, and was available only in a sport coupe and in specific colors. Standard upholstery 739 Blue, 756 Black, and 796 Gold. With "Custom" upholstery in 767 Black, 712 Gold, and 716 Bright Blue shown here. '67 Custom Features Note that it was available with "Strato-ease" headrests as well, which would make it very easy for a trim shop to retro fit a pair of 69 bucket seat covers to one of these bench seat frames, needing only to add the smooth, patternless center section to the seat bottom and armrest. There's your "cloned" '69 bench as seen in several undocumented cars.

In '68 the "Strato-back" seat it came in standard upholstery 718 Blue, 713 Black, and 723 Gold. With "custom" upholstery 720 Blue, 715 Black, and 727 Turquoise, and again not available in convertibles for whatever reason.

I don't want to sound like a naysaying documentation hound, but to me it's pretty obvious that these seats were well documented and accounted for as installed in 67-8 Camaros. I just haven't been able to locate any option codes, color availability, upholstery patterns, original examples, or documention of any sort even hinting at the possiblity of the 69 bench seat having ever existed.

I sure would be interested in being shown otherwise though...gotta be about the rarest '69 RPO there is if no one has a single documented example. Makes liquid tire chain seem and JL-8 like everyday items.
