1969 Chalk/Inspection marks?


This will be the second 1969 Pontiac I've restored, but neither was virgin enough to carry it's original chalk marks.  My black car had been repainted before, the red convertible is already stripped.  If anyone has taken apart survivors and noted/photographed any chalk marks, particularly underhood, please share photos if you have any!

Maybe there just wasn't a lot on these... the trucks of that era had a lot, by contrast, and I'm well versed in it. But your pic is the first I've ever seen on these cars!

All I have is my survivor truck frame marks .    I was excited to see them (Oct'17)     

I used to spray paint over all the firewall markings on my muscle cars  (who knew?)

The only thing I found on my 2+2 (which has factory paint in the engine bay, the trunk-door jams and the undercarriage) is the paint codes are marked on the firewall. Perhaps they only did this because it was a two-tone though?  69 is Palladium Silver and the 67 is Burgundy.

You just sent me out to the shop to look.

No markings on my firewall.

Nice link, but I notice none of the postings are 69. The fact that they switched to chassis black on the firewall that year may have something to do with it.
