Re: 1967 Z/28
Just one more to chime in. It is always safer to question than to assume to much.
In the case of this car and a few others that I have on record it looks very much like there was a shortage of a particular part, could be the MO engine, that held this car on the line longer than it should have been. Based on the body number sequence to the vin number this car and at least one other I have record of were both held for a number of days counting the weekend. This hold over number is based on several cars on record that are within 20 build numbers away, taking their final vin numbers and subtracting from this cars vin number, divide.... This is not a common thing but well documented on high performance and rare option cars from several years where parts were short and the car had to be held up until they were in. The hold over of 69 Copo's where they sat waiting for a BE rear is a well known example. I've got enough cars in my own registry that I have to see and agree with Jon, not that I was questioning, 6E/7A are odd weeks with a number of peculiar things showing up.
