In 1969. Chevrolet's Camaro offered no fewer than 12 engine choices. from a 140 hp inline six to the monster 427 COPO 430 hp ZL1.  The most potent non-COPO engine was the L78 375-hp 396. with four-bolt main bearings. 11 to 1 compression ratio. solid lifters and four-barrel Holley carburetor
Often teamed with the L78 was the Muncie M-22 four speed manual transmission. known as the 'Rock Crushers. the Muncie gearboxes were a bit rougher and louder than the alternative Saginaw or Borg-Warner boxes. but would stand up to years of punishment. The brilliant Daytona Yellow SS-396 Sport Coupe has the desirable L78 375 hp engine option with wide ratio M-21 four speed manual transmission.
A matching numbers car. it has received a concours rotisserie restoration and was a Gold Spinner Winner at the 2006 25th Anniversary Chevy Vette Fest in Chicago.  The judging scrutinized the numbers on eight different components. and recognized correct T-3 headlamps. and rosewood steering wheel.
L89 aluminum heads were added at time of restoration. reducing weight by some 75lbs.  Its principal virtue was in evening out weight distribution of the car. thus improving the handling.  With the L89 modified L78 engine and M-21 transmission. this is the ultimate Camaro in all-around performance for the 1969 model year.
It has power steering. power brakes. console gauges. pushbutton radio with cowl antenna. tinted glass and windshield washers.  Contours. paint and brightwork are all excellent. as is the black vinyl interior.  The engine compartment is spotless and correctly detailed.  The undercarriage is black and exceptionally clean.  The SS wheels are mounted with Goodyear Polyglas F70-14 white letter blackwalls.  
Sold new by Byrne Brothers Chevrolet in White Plains. NY. it is accompanied by an original pre-delivery inspection record issued to first owner Tom Hammond. and award plaques that the car has received since restoration.
