Well here is the latest on this 68 car. It is a documented Canadian car and was originally sold in Calgary through GSL Chev Olds. I called the VIN into George Zapora at GM Canada today and got them to fax me a copy of the original build sheet. It is a true RS car and the Z/28 option was not on the sheet. That confirms that the option was added to the car at a later date in time. It is however important to note, that whoever added the Z/28 package to this car performed a beautiful addition of the option. It has the correct intake, carb / cleaner, heads, covers, pulleys, brackets, bell housing, and the rest of the correct parts for a Z/28.

Obviously no expense was spared when this work was performed as the sale is accompanied by a stack of receipts totalling over 25K in parts alone. Much of the parts listing were supplied by GSL Chev Olds where GM parts were used throughout. (Imagine the costs to buy these parts as NOS today) That did not include any associated costs for the mechancial work, or the bodywork and paint. The car did receive NOS GM Quarters along with NOS fenders when restored and also got a GM cowl hood. The fact that the Z/28 option package was added does not change the status of this purchase nor does it change my opinion of the cars high level of restoration. It is truly a beautiful car throughout and now I can drive it without Hulk Hogan guarding over it at Walmart! (lol)

Cheers....
