There was one for sale A few miles from me early this summer and had been nicely recovered in blue. If anyone is interested I can give the guy A call and see if he still has it.

I've only seen one bench seat. It was a 68 L30 with a column shift Powerglide no less.

I ran across some of those after market 'Hot Girls'. There were times that I cursed that console and floor shifter if ya know what I mean...(Grinning)

"Bench seat was not available after 68"
I have seen a 1969 Firebird with the bench, and it was definitely original. So I always assumed that 69 Camaros could have had it too. I have never seen a 69 Camaro with one though.

How about this one. Never could get the trim tag info from the owner so I don't know if it's original or not. But if it is, it would have to be a very early 69. Bench seat is not a listed RPO for 69.

I did happen to see one in a 69 COPO this summer at a local cruise. However, after getting more info on the car I found out that it was a clone. Not sure if the bench was an add in. But that was a first for me.

I've got two friends with original bench seat cars. Both are '68 SS396s. One is an L78/M21 with black standard bench and the other is a loaded L35/M40 with deluxe blue bench and headrests. Only heard of one other car that had a bench with headrests.

I like this car. It was loaded with options.

In 67 - 6583 had bench seats.
In 68 - 4896 had bench seats.

Back in the 80's a guy down the street had a 69 convertible with a bench seat in it, although if memory serves me it also had a Z/28 emblem or 2 on it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
