RS/Z Survivor on ebay

[Steve Shauger]

A couple of interesting facts about the car listed on ebay as a survivor. The car was built 10B of 68. The description mentions original 302 DZ, what is omitted is the date code of 7/29 of 69, 9 Months after the cars build date. The trans is built 3 months after and the cowl hood must be a prototype. Survivor??? Just a heads up!

I hate this when it happens. I have been salivating over this car since it hit eBay. As usual, what the pictures are able to show look great, then, when checking it out in person, the facts are all too easily revealed. Did you check it out yourself, Pace? Do you know the history of it?

Way to early for the ZL/2 hood!!!BKH

I only checked it out because of the link so I now have a few questions.

1)Did VanNuys Z28s use X codes?
2)Didn't the early Z's have the 6x7 tacs?
3)Weren't early Rally wheels DF Coded?

I am not putting this Z down and I am not interested in e-mailing the owner just for info.
I am certain that there are enough Camaro/Z28 experts on this site to help me with my questioins.

Thanks in advance Guys.

The VIN as shown isn't correct. I believe that it should be 124379L507143.

We drove 1,000 miles with money and a trailer from Austin to Lubbock to purchase this car. When the three of us walked up we knew within 30 seconds we had been mislead.
By phone from Austin, the price was firm. He was still calling us on our cell phone when we were 30 miles out of town after leaving. The price had dropped over $5,000 at that point. We were not interested at any price. It drove like crud, also.

So then either the vin or trim tag has been replaced or altered?
