Ive been looking at 69 Camaros heater hoses and I see that some are going to the heater core in the middle of the car and some have them towards the passenger fender why is that? did it have something to do with the build date it was changed ?

Big block VS small block is the heater core difference and the location of the tubes
The pace car should have had a 3/8 fuel line to the engine from the tank
To my knowledge, all ss's had 3/8 fuel lines as did the Z-28 and the big block cars
That pace car needed to try to keep up (on the track)
Quite sure it would have had a 3/8 fuel line

I looked at the car again today its been about 2 years since I saw it last.( Been trying to buy this for like 4 years) Its been sitting outside and the fenders and quarters were pretty rusted and did have frame rot. A large tree limb fell on top of the car and crushed the convertible top pretty good. They still wanted 35k I left a huge project that im not ready to get involved it. oh well thanks everyone for the help. not meant to be. I get heart broken seeing an original car sitting outside rusting away like that.

I bought a 68 that runs last year for 20k
Offer them 25 cash for the vert
It's snowing at my house right now
Car is under a cover
That pace car vert can take some rain and be still ok
If they really want 35, they may be waiting years due to the cars condition
let them know that slowly
