Re: 1967 Z/28
The second pad picture is actually much better then the other one. Even the pad surface looks better.
Yes, it is very hard to tell without seeing it in person. I WILL NOT call it a restamp, it is just very strange. If you guys say that an engine later then the build date is typical for that time period, then I will have to defer to the experts. Sorry, I just have never heard of such a thing. It is very very unusual, but I am always willing to listen and learn. Like I said before, that Z is gorgeous. If I had room for another, I would seriously be considering it. And that price seems like a deal. Good luck with the sale.

Re: 1967 Z/28
80% of Deuces built in 06B have their rears dated later than the scheduled build date on their trim tag
 It happens!

Re: 1967 Z/28
If you say it happened, I will believe it.
Just can't imagine GM building a car, then letting it sit around waiting for the rest of the parts to show up the following week. Just doesn't make sense. There must have been a lot of 1/2 built bodies sitting around waiting in June 67. What about the rest of the engine componets - how are they dated? Alt, Carb, dist.

[/ QUOTE ] Jeff, you're reading it wrong. The trim tags were stamped wrong so it looks like they were being built the last week of June when they really weren't started until the first week in July. Somebody probably forgot to change the stamps for the trim tag. Look at the 69 Camaros with 06A (almost all of June was stamped 06A but most cars were built later in the month) and the 69 Camaros with 04L on the trim tag. CRG should have better examples of these situations, but I don't think it's an issue of the car being built and then sitting and waiting for components.
