* The L35 engine was also available in non-SS396 optioned Chevelles as a special " police package" that also required power disc brakes. It's believed 323 non-SS396 optioned Chevelles were built. This figure is arrived at by subtracting the number of RPO Z25 (SS 396 Equipment) options sold from the total of the three 396 engine options.
RPO L35 = 59,786
RPO L34 = 17,358
RPO L78 =  9,486
================
Total      = 86,630
RPO Z25 = 86,307
================
                     323 396 engines sold not accounted for via RPO Z25

** The costs listed come from numerous resources; GM Heritage Restoration Kits, actual dealer invoices (GM to dealer cost), car invoices (dealer to buyer), and valid window stickers.  Costs in the GM Heritage Restoration Kits are generally done very early in the model year and are subject to change.  If you have verified proof of an option with a different cost than is shown, please don't hesitate to contact me via my contact page.

*** Sales figure combines 5,194 for Hugger Orange and 2,841 for Daytona Yellow.
(1) RPO A82 Head Restraint pricing was automatically added to both bench and bucket seats prior to January 1, 1969 but could be 'deleted' via RPO AR1. Beginning January 1, 1969 the 'delete' option was eliminated as head restraints became mandatory.






*** Monaco/Orange and Daytona Yellow were also available on non-SS optioned Chevelles but would NOT have the 72 or 76 paint code on the trim tag but rather the trim tag would have the same indication of how other special order colors would be designated and the cost would be determined the same way any other special order paint color would be cost out. Special order paint (RPO ZP3) pricing can vary and is often coded on a window sticker as 1001HA ONE SPECIAL COLOR.
