The previous owner could have put the Z/28 emblems on the car since that was the "thing to do"back then. You have to keep in mind, even though Joel used parts like a few of those on your car, they were all aftermarket and open for sale to the general public.
I cant say for sure but , I dont think Joel would have put Z/28 emblems on a car.
I hate to say it but until you pay the documentation fee, it will be left to speculation. I would do a very in depth car history research all the way back to its origin.
The more you know and have proof of the better off you will be if and when you decide to pay Joel to give you the yay or nay.
I know there are a few guys out there that believe and have proof that their cars are MOTION cars but Joel doesnt recognize them as Motion cars.
Keep in mind theres basically 2 types of MOTION cars
1. Baldwin Motion of course the name says it all Baldwin sold, Motion prepped cars.
2. Motion prepped cars. Cars brought by the customer to Motion to be prepped that were bought elsewhere.
Good Luck to you in the hunt.
