Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
[ QUOTE ]
The 2nd Gen enthusiasts at www.nastyz28.com have never seen evidence of any other body/frame VIN stamping. [/ QUOTE ] That's not true. I recall seeing posts about the subframe VIN on NastyZ28.com. I then looked at my subframe to see if I could find one and I did. Unless I was dreaming it. I'll take a look when I get home.

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
A member here had a very low mileage 70 Z that had a picture of the front sub frame with the VIN number stamped on it. The stamp was facing the outside underneath the drivers door. I looked on mine (not very carefully mind you) and could not find any stamp on the front subframe.

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
It was Kenny Pascoe's 3500 mile Z that I saw the VIN stamped on the front subframe.

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
Isn't that the low mile Z in the for sale section that's on ebay right now?

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
PM K Pascoe (member here). He may still have the picture of the VIN stamped on the front subframe.

[/ QUOTE ] Chuck you are 100% correct. That was the picture and thread I was thinking of. My apologies.. Here is mine somewhat faint at the beginning of the stamp. 3 - March 10 - Day 70 - Year N - Are we certain that's Norwood? My car is LA... 2 - Shift

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
If the "N" stands for Norwood, what does "S" stand for? I have a 1970 Firebird subframe with a S instead of N on it.

Re: 1970 Camaro hidden partial VINs
Was not the 70 Firebird, built either at Norwood,OH or VanNuys(LA), CA ???????
Maybe you can ask at the Performance Years Pontiac web site (???) Camaro frames should only have the (N)orwood or (L) Los Angeles designation...........
