'69 Chevelle SS396/4-sp, Original Engine, Build Sheet & Body Broadcast

Pretty well documented for a '69. Is it odd that the optional 3.55 gear ratio wouldn't have shown up on the build sheet as an extra cost option?

Because 3.55 was the standard gear with this car.
3.07,3.31,3.73 & 4.10 were optional extra cost options.

Thanks Rick, I had assumed it was 3.31.

That would make 2 of us

3.31 was standard with the 3 speed manual or T400, but apparently not the 4 speed manual. I learned something today
