1967 Z/28

Stefano does not know anymore about the previous post, he is asking based on a comment I made in my sales ad. I can't remember which forum or when the previous post was made but I believe a member named Alan was inquiring about the pad. Zedder may know more as well. I do have a hard copy of the discussion at home and will try to determine more about it. Thanks for your offer to assist.

Can someone post the prior stamp thread mentioned? Any known reason why the vin tag has a std pop rivet.

Looks like a cool car.


Thanks,

I don't get the date stamp. How can that be correct? Just asking.

The motor build date doesn't even fall into the last week of June, 1967. The 3rd of July in 1967 was on a Monday and would have placed the engine build date in 07A. The VIN on the car falls in with the cowl tag of 06E . There were 5 weeks in June with Friday being June 30. Even if the week ended on Sunday, that was July 2nd. Last I knew the week didn't end on a Monday.

What makes it even more confusing is the VIN is a few thousand before the end of the June month VIN. Add in the fact the M and O look out of whack and more


These cars whether a Z or not all rolled down the same assembly line did they not? Was a motor not available when this one came down the line until the following week??

The car is still nice regardless.
