From what I can see:

X11= chrome style trim. Doesn’t tell you what engine it came with but it does exclude certain engines like the 396 and the 302. That code could mean a 6cyl, or a 327 or an SS350.

The “52” means Garnet Red body color

The “B” next to it means it came with a vinyl top

I can’t tell if the one series of numbers is “711” or “Z11”.The “711” means black standard bucket seats. The “Z11” means rear quarter moldings, wheel opening moldings and Z28 rally stripes.

The “07A” means the car was built in July during the first week

“NOR” means the car was built in Norwood, Ohio

EDIT: it most likely is a true SS car. X11 DOES include the SS 350 model. It’s a 255hp 350 with a 4-bbl. Although it is not one of the more desirable models it is quite rare. Estimated production of SS 350’s is roughly around 5% of the total number of cars built in '69.

It would be interesting to see the engine block numbers too. I’d bet that the owner used the original engine and put a stroker crank in it to make a 383. The stamp pad is just infront of the passenger side cylinder head.

Thanks a bunch for looking into it. I looked into the vin and it indicated that it is an 8cyl car. Were there X11 8cyl non SS cars? The car has drum brakes on the front which one site said that means it is not an SS I believe.

I can take a look at the motor. Give me a pic of what you want me to check if ya can. That always works best.

Nice buy. With Canfield heads, bet it’s faster than the Nova, but only from a roll, lol

The Nova rips! Both cars feel pretty quick. I have abused the Nova way more so far so I need to get some plates on the Camaro and see what it’s made of. It kills those tires from a dig…I know that much 🙂
