Thanks a lot guys!

No spoiler, flat hood. The rear spoiler was added (not by me). I will not be putting a cowl hood on the car. It was there was I purchased it. The original flat hood is here to stay.

Thanks,
Dan

<span style="font-weight: bold">From the CRG on the M Code Block:
&quot;M&quot;-Coded Blocks
There is one exception to this convention that has been observed: some blocks have been seen with &quot;M&quot; cast codes. Research by the Saginaw Metal Casting Operations of GM Powertrain Division has found that these &quot;M&quot; codes are not date codes, but actually a foundry code used to indentify parts that were made to evaluate a casting process change. After evaluating the parts, the blocks would either be destroyed or released into production. There is no way to determine the date an &quot;M&quot;-coded block was poured. </span>

Please put me in line when you are ready to part with it. Since you said no spoiler it is perfect, just perfect.

That is almost the exact car I want for a daily driver. LMB, White HS, flat hood, #s Z. Myself, I would have to add RS and an endura [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Cool find, reminds me a lot of the early Z I owned a few years ago and sold to James (firstgenaddict).

Flat hood, no spoilers, good colors! I couldn't sleep at night if I had found/bought this beauty. Congrats Dan.

way to go dan! great find. take alot of pictures. love those flat hood cars. the first thing i did when i bought my z-28 in 1978 was to go to chevrolet and buy a cowl hood. it was on the car until 2002 when i realized how great they look with the flat hood!

Hi Guys,

I had the car out this afternoon. Took a few pictures and figured I would post them here. Dan and I are so pleased with this car and its originality is fantastic.

Best,
Dave

Great looking Z!! Take a couple of minutes and reinstall the Z/28 grill emblem to the correct spot. It's like wayyy off. Once again nice car!!

Hey Dan and Dave,

Great find and Great choice on the NOS sheetmetal. I would also look for a good rust free floor from a donor car The repro floors don’t have all the right indents, creases, wrinkles and bracket impressions that the factory floors do. This way you can butt weld the repair sections in. An original car like this deserves that.
