Only 2.3% of all Camaros produced in 1969 were painted Burnished Brown making a genuine matching-numbers Z28 in this color a prized collector's item. As the original factory VIN Tag and original factory X coded Cowl Tag indicate this example was built in Norwood, Ohio on the 3rd week of September in 1969.
