1969 Camaro Z10 - 1969 Camero Z10 "pace cars" Jerry Mcnese
certified with all documents. Dover White RS/SS with Hugger Orange
Z28 style stripes and white interior and seat. All were equipped
with the recently released fresh air hood (aka: cowl hood). It was
a well-kept secret between dealers for years, the pace car
convertibles had a sibling! There were a limited number of RS/SS
coupes built via the option code Z10 that received the pace car
style orange Z28 striping, essentially coupe versions of the pace
car. Paperwork documenting thesecars has not been found, but they
were sold in the Southwest, (TX, OK, NM, LA, and AZ), and in
Tennessee. The option was somehow communicated to dealers in these
states, and the dealers then placed their orders, (Chevrolet did
not build cars without a dealer or customer order). Production
records have not been found. However, Z10 production is estimated
to be about 450 to 500 cars recently by auto enthusiast writing
newer books. Previously they thought around 250 cars were ordered.
This estimate is higher than other prior estimates. Just under 200
cars are currently known. The big difference between the Z10 and
the "pace Car" was convertible vs coup. Z10 was only a coup. Also,
the Z10 was ordered with air conditioning and no pace car door
decal. Some say the dealers saved a few dollars to order without
the decal and avoided the licensing fees
