Camaro Corral - DAMN GOOD ISSUE!
Well I received my issues of Camaro Corral I bought off eBay. These were created by the United States Camaro Club, which I think has been disbanded.
I bought 11 issues only to get one that had some Player's Challenge information. Well I was extremely pleased! The issue is dated March/April 1992, and it has one of the best summaries of the Player's Challenge series I've read. The acticle highlights the 1LE beginings.
This issue also has Thirdgen engine codes, paint codes, interior codes, rear axle codes, production numbers for (Exterior colors, interior colors, popular option codes).
It is damn near the bible of thirdgens for people that like details.
If you have a chance to find the Volume 9, issue 2 (March/April 1992) ... buy it!
I'll scan the cover of it for those that are interested in finding this issue.
Some interesting numbers.
G92 production numbers
1982 - 3,405
1983 - 1,009
1984 - 834
1985 - 205
1986 - 4,703
1987 - 10,533
1988 - 5,252
1989 - 1,426
1990 - 2,710 (same # as J65 & KC4 - must be package)
Rarest options
1982 - KC4 - 51
1983 - GA4/NA6 - 37 (high altitude axle ratio and emissions)
1984 - T89 - 21 (tail light export)
1985 - DD9 - 12 - OSVR mirror electric LH & RH
1986 - UD4 - 3 - alarm system - overspeed warning
1987 - UD4 - 19
1988 - 1LE - duh!
1989 - UL5 - 43 - radio delete
1990 - U1C - 3 - AM/FM ST, SK, SC, DISC, CLK

Im surprised that with the amount of historical information out there somebody has not started a bow-tie version of Pontiac Historical Services.
