Default Re: THE LAST??? 1967 Z-28

Unlike Chrysler who actually built cars on spec in those days GM cars were built to a specific order. Dealer orders were for stock, per customer spec or fleet for lease/daily rental. I believe Zone Offices could also order cars as they are sometimes listed as available in Zone newsletters.

So yes, someone specifically ordered your car.

The sequence in which scheduled orders were built was apparently negotiable. High-volume dealers could and did receive preferential treatment. De Loreans' 1973 book alludes to Zone offices threatening to delay cars ordered without radios. He also mentions chronic material shortages due in large part to the long option lists common in those days-too many build combinations.

The CRG db is proprietary so I cannot reveal specific VIN info. There is a '67 very close to the last and it is 07B.
