Look at this guys ad for a 1967 Z28 original powerglide car? What will they come up with next!!!!Heres a quote from the ad:
""The trim tag or “cowl tag” has an M Code for Powerglide automatic, in addition to the 4L Code for 302 Z/28 Engine. It is thought that all Z/28 Camaros were equipped w/ manual 4-speed transmissions. Seller has pondered installing a 4-speed Muncie manual transmission, but then the transmission code on the trim tag would no longer correspond. Nevertheless, this may be the only known 1967 Camaro coded L for Z/28, in addition to being coded M for a Powerglide transmission on the trim tag" http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet...=item43a1d9d509 |

Most likely a fake tag which was stamped wrong. Original tag probably had all of those codes except the Z28 one and when adding the 4L they didn't think to change the tranny code.

their disclosure says it all, even though the say "matching" numbers ...
"It is probable that the 3892657 casting engine block has been surface milled and restamped:" and: "Seller has no way to verify if this vehicle is a real Z/28 RS or a clone ... " Funny he uses JM's name but hasn't sprung for the inspection to answer the above questions regarding this car ...

Not that it really matters but whats up with that wire loom bracket? Is that gobs of weld holding that on or is that just rust bubbles under the paint?

There was an Antwerp built 1967 Z28 here in Sweden that was supposedly built with an automatic. But Antwerp cars are different.

Anders, they didn't make any Z/28's in Antwerp. And as far as I know there aren't any 67 Z/28'z in Sweden. Jan |

Janne, the guy who told me he had a 1967 Z28 built in Antwerp is a VERY competent Chevy-man, but I guess he could fool me any day.
If it was ever registered in Sweden, how would you recognize a 1967 Z28 just by looking at a VIN in the register ? You know more about Antwerp cars than I do, but how can you say that no Camaros were assembled there with Z28 parts ? Just a few years ago even the experts in the USA said that no COPO Camaros were built in L.A., but now we know that some were built there. The same apply to Kansas-built COPO Chevelles. I´m just trying to keep an open mind.
