1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 — DZ 302 V8, 4-Speed, F41 Suspension, Vinyl Top Why This Car Is Special The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 occupies a specific and well-earned position in American automotive history. It was not a street car that moonlighted on the track — it was a competition-bred machine that Chevrolet made street-legal to satisfy SCCA Trans-Am racing homologation rules. To compete in the under-5-liter displacement class, Chevy engineers combined a 283 block with a 327 crankshaft to arrive at exactly 302.4 cubic inches. That engine, designated the DZ 302, became the heart of every Z/28 sold during the first-generation Camaro run. The Z/28 option was not advertised in Chevrolet's main sales literature in 1967 or 1968 — it was essentially a word-of-mouth package for buyers who already knew what they were looking for. By 1969, the Z/28 had earned enough of a reputation that Chevrolet leaned into it more openly, and production climbed to 20,302 units that year, compared to just 602 in 1967 and 7,199 in 1968. Even so, the 1969 Z/28 represented a small fraction of total Camaro output for the model year, which exceeded 243,000 units. The 1969 model year also holds the distinction of being the last of the first-generation body style, making it the most refined expression of that original design before the second-generation car arrived for 1970. The VIN on this car decodes to a Norwood, Ohio assembly plant build — the 'N' in the seventh position confirms that. Norwood was one of two plants that built the first-generation Camaro alongside Van Nuys, California, and it produced the majority of Z/28s during this era. This particular 1969 Camaro Z/28 is presented in silver with black racing stripes, a black vinyl interior, and a black vinyl top — a combination that presents cleanly and reads correctly for the era. It carries the F41 performance suspension, the close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission, and the dual exhaust that were all standard Z/28 equipment....
