My '69 Z28 Find

[92646]

What a score with my favorite interior color. After seeing so many restored Z/28s it is so refreshing to see a flat hood original car. Is this car exceptional or did most most original Camaros have this good of panel alignment from the factory? I would do what ever I could to save those fenders because you are not going to get that great of a fit even with NOS fenders.

very cool car! I did not think norwood cars even had build sheets. Most of the unrestored camaros I have seen have a bigger than normal gap between the front fender and the leading edge of the door, and when restored that gap is reduced.

Great Find!!!!!

It is a 386 block with a casting date of M34. I believe if you go to the Camaro.net website there is some research done that explains the M coded block.

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]
