Default Re: 69 Z/28 ebay - Vin Questions

Car is real, VIN # deal is obvious, but still sad. I saw the car when it was green at a WA dealership. A previous owner came in and looked at the car, and told us how, in circa '75, he had to have the windshield replaced and the the guys were such hacks, they totally butchered the VIN tag on the dash (Must have used crowbars and a butterknife).

I didn't look at the trans, so I can't say whether that stamp was there then or not. The motor was right, however. I wonder if the trans was stamped to make people feel better about the Washington VIN?

The selling dealer thinks black is the new red, not sure any Z's coming his way will ever be anything but. That burnished brown no spoiler car is now just another black repaint....the guy gets his money, though.
