How would there be a Cowl delete?

flat hood...cowl induction delete

[/ QUOTE ]

But the flat hood was standard, so how could there be a Cowl delete?

Or am I missing something here?

no, you have it right

some people think because it doesn't have an OPTION, then it is a "delete option". That is incorrect.

for instance, i have seen people refer to a car without the OPTIONAL console as a "console delete". Not sure, but they may think it is standard and you had to "delete" the standard feature.

In the case of the hood or a console, they are both OPTIONS, so having a car without them is not having a car with "delete" options ...

the Z also has the GM hood locks, cool car from the limited pictures

Right on Jim,options only.One thing is however, i have never seen a stripe delete on a first gen Z28,has anyone else??

Wasn't it Heartbeat City that had the 1800 mile black stripe delete '69 Z? I believe it has a -- special order paint designation.

Sorry, HBC. It was Coast to Coast... 1800 mile stripe delete Z

Actually, HBC used to have that car, so you were right.

But I don't think it was a special-order color because black was RPO if I'm not mistaken.

I think Van (ChevyThunder) went to go look at it last week. PM him for info.

The owner of the car up until 1999-2000 would stop by my house on a regular basis. Wonder if the car still has it's chambered exh(?)

Hylton I did not end up looking at the car because the guy who is selling (he is not the owner) has 100,000 phone calls on it,people flying in from the moon to look at it yadda yadda.... In the end after hearing all of that I decided to not go look at the car
It is an early built Z standard original flat hood D80 car with a correct carry over 68 spoiler
ZL2 was an option and this car may have been built to early for a ZL2 hood , I don't remember the ZL2 optional hood became available.
Tach was an option to until around March I beleive but this car does have a 7k tach and that is correct for an early Z.

That is all I know about the car . I is a - - trim tag. I had the guy open the hood while on the phone but I have not seen a photo of the TT so I am taking his word since he had no idea what I ws talking about but that should be confirmed

Friend's 1-owner LA-built Z/28 was originally pink in color when he purchased it new locally in 1970,one of the last ones on the west coast.
Note the -- paint code:

I also owned a stripe delete 69 Z. Trim tag was - -. Stripe delete was called out on buildsheet.
