The book concentrates on the 1969 model year Chevelle with the new SS 396 Equipment option, RPO Z25.

Errata
Page 15
HIDEAWAY WINDSHIELD WIPERS
The last sentence in paragraph one is incorrect and should read, "When a 300 Deluxe coupe (13427) or a 300 Deluxe sport coupe (13437) was ordered with the SS 396 Equipment option, hideaway windshield wipers were not part of the option, however the SS 396 hood was."

Back page
The sentence, "Two SS 396-specific paint colors (Daytona Yellow and Hugger Orange) were available at no charge but could be ordered for $42.15 on other models." is incorrect. The two colors were a $42.15 option when the SS 396 option was ordered. They could be ordered on any other 1969 Chevelle under RPO ZP3 special paint through the Fleet & Special Order (F&SO) process but cost would vary by plant and could cost as much as $125.00. This is spelled-out on page 60. The back page was apparently done by an in-house writer and is incorrect.
