Its amazing how few cars were ordered with ZL2 after the option became available. It was advertised fairly well. All the Pace Cars had it and that was April May so alot of cars were made after that. In reference to the car in the original post, when you say smoothed the firewall, what exactly was smoothed? Was it dents or?? Got any pics of it. I guess value would depend on that and if you could get it back to normal. The tag being off isnt a big deal if you have the original. You have ownership history and old photos to prove its the real deal.

ZL2 as an option was installed on 10,026 '69 Camaros. About 4,000 of those were Z10s &amp; Z11s. The remaining 6,000 or so were divided up between Camaro SS and Z/28 production. At this time no one knows how many of each were built.

Could probably account for almost another 1000 to COPO specific.

ZL2 was standard equipment on COPOs and is not listed on COPO docs. When included with other features, such as CE1 Headlight Washers with RS, they were not included in option totals.

Firewall smoothed from what i understand was the seam on the firewall was smoothed over with bondo to remove the rough seam sealer....no damage was underneath - just one of those old school thinking back in the day that carried over to today.
