Plenty of info in the auction about the car. The most interesting part is the trim tag and NO picture of it!

May be one of those questions that never gets answered if it is the real tag...

Its a real tag, the ZZ is done from behind, but it wasn't done on the same machine that did the rest of the trim tag data. The font is a little taller than the rest, and there was no provision in the tag machine to place characters in that location. The ZZ letters aren't as crisp as the rest of the tag info suggesting it was done either before or after the rest of the tag data was stamped on another fixture or by hand. Don't know what it means or when it was done.

Its an added JL-8 car too.
"The car was fitted with a very expensive JL8 brake package" Interesting color... Endura bumper looks good! Vinyl top -- Killer on a maroon car! No mention of documentation (that I can see) and with all the added options (X-ram, headers, flowmaster, JL-8) how do we know which factory appearing options are original to the car or restoration add ons? The other thing I do not understand. Why are some engine parts dated late 69 (12/18/69) and others dated 1968? Typo??

Mark, if it is stamped from behind then the letter "ZZ" is backwards? What sense would this make? Not really a letter then.. Just curious. Unless the stamp from behind was meant to be seen from the front of the tag.
