70 RS Z28

Vin # on the block should be stamped down by the oil filter in the rough.....

I agree Phil, 1970 Norwood should be on side. 71's were on the front.

I have seen the VIN stamped in both places so that is really not an issue.

BUT look real close at the VIN stamp on the block. See anything missing??? Anyone? Anyone?

I don't see anything in front of the N (shouldn't there be a "0") and you can see the partial VIN isn't straight in line so the numbers look to be stamped individually. The engine code stamp looks ok but the partial VIN looks like a restamp.

Should it have the year number before the N Rick?

Already mentioned in post above.
The car is still very nice and you don't see many in that color combo.

mmmmm, maybe I should just get a completed car and forget about the project Z I have in my driveway. Naa, that's no fun.

So if the vin stamp has been added to the deck..Is there a chance there is still a vin stamp down by the oil filter ? I haven't looked at enough 70's to remember.

1)Has it been determined on THIS Yellow Norwood Z-28 that it has a 10N5xxxxx VIN number stamped on the Bellhousing Flange to match the alledged 10N5xxxxx on the transmission.
2) Has it been concluded that more than a few other Norwood 70 Z's had VIN # stamped on eng deck. I will ask most of the other 70 Z judges and "experts" at nastyZ28.
3)WHY would a born with eng with VIN stamp, NOT match the VIN stamp configuration of the Born with Transmission......IF in fact they are done with same stamping tool??????
