Were the headlight nozzles a separate RPO code to have the factory install? I had forgotten about these since they are rarely noticed and sounds like, rarely functional.

They were standard on 69's, ONLY. Gee I wonder why? I guess they never heard of the KISS principal. My 34 years in maintenance are showing! Lou.

It was interesting to see that even brand new the headlights didn't operate perfectly in sync with each other.

The headlight washers became standard equipment with the 1969's and continued until mid to late 1971. In 1972 Chevrolet discontinued the Corvette headlight washers and then made the formally optional factory alarm system standard equipment .
Also in 1969 headlight washers were included with the hidden headlight option on Camaro and Impala/Caprice.

Looks like a preview for a new Transformer movie.

The C-7 is a beast. I don't care what anyone says! Wish I can afford one.

Those were the days, when car commercials spoke of the brand new type of alternator and not about CO2 emmissions

We can blame that on the global warming nut jobs.
