It looks like someone put screws into the existing rivets.

My 74 has those same screws, I asked about it here a while back and it is correct for a 74, I do not know if it is correct for a 73. My 72 has rivets.

A search on the www.nastyz28.com site will tell you the screws are indeed correct.

I believe the switch to screws occurred in late April/early May 1973.

Re: 73 Z28 trim tag info
Thank you gentlemen. The car belongs to a relative. I asked him if it was a real Z28 or a clone. He said he wasn't sure. Some people!!!!!! I would have to decode a car before I bought one!!!!! hehehe.....
Trim tag says yellow-white stripes, but it's blue now. He stopped at my house to show me his new 12 bolt with discs. I said let's decode it......... Thanks again, ktownkid

Re: 73 Z28 trim tag info
73 = screws ok
There was a mid year change from rivets to screws. If there is a T in the 5 digit of the VIN its a Z.

Correct. A mid year change. My March '73 NOR build had rivets.
