1969 Convertible Question
Good Evening,
My Dad is selling his 69 convertible on Bring a Trailer. There are two tanks in the truck which I always assumed were part of the convertible mechanism. I was wrong as the hydraulic pump for the top is self contained. I can't imagine these are old air ride reservoirs. Anyone have any guesses or seen anything like them?
Thank You
Black tank, right rear corner

1st gen convertibles had them on all 4 corners. They are vibration dampeners, nicknamed "cocktail shakers". This tells all about them: Chevy Camaro FAQ Convertible Cocktail Shakers

I never would have guessed they were for vibration control. Now I'm curious to see if there are two at the front of the car.
