If anyone wants to read this, I did extensive research on the 1974 camaro model year and the fender cut out when it started. Here is a link to it on nastyz28 web site. http://www.nastyz28.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275968

Charlie's 979 mile 74 Z28 has the flat fender.

My 33K all original sheetmetal and 80% original paint 1974 z28 does have the indent.
Its an 03C Norwood built car.

Charlies car was a Dec 73 Car I believe

The trim tag says it is a 02C car.

I checked on Craigslist link. Its deleted by seller. Anyone buy it? If everything else checked out on that car. I feel it was a good buy on that car. There's been a lot of interest in these 70 L78 camaros recently. Im hoping its going to a good home.
