I did enlarge the trim tag pic. It can't be a 03A car, the BDY number is to high for that. There is some damage to the tag just at the 0XA number, I think it is a 06A.



The enlargement process moves around the pixels a bit so don't make to much out of it but you clearly see that it can't be a 03A car.

This is a twist I wasn't expecting, but Jan is right. The car's production / ship date according to NCRS is 04-14-69 ( a Monday ). The 03A date seemed a little early to me for a 04B built car, but after discussing it with Mr. Borris who discussed it with some of his Norwood contacts, it seemed reasonable considering everything it took to order, receive, schedule and complete a special paint if that color wasn't already in plant. I never paid any attention to the body number... I thought it was 03A and didn't go any further. The car is honestly a true Z, and it has all of the proper punchings for the ZL-2, D80 and Tach. This thing is hacked to within an inch of it's life and will never be more than a decent day 2 car or bracket bomber. Plus, the owner since 1970 couldn't care less about numbers. Time for some detective work I guess. I'm kind of embarrassed...
