IS THERE ANY WAY TO TELL IF A 69 CAMARO IS A TRUE Z28 FROM THE TRIM TAG IF THE CAR WAS NOT BUILT IN NORWOOD. PLEASE HELP

Nothing on the trim tag will indicate Z/28 on an LA car.

If the car is unrestored, look for the build sheet on top of the gas tank. You just never know.

Also, pull the back seat (top) and look for a x chalk mark on the bulkhead just under the pass side package tray. It will most likely be under the glue marks. Good Luck.

The buildsheet should look like this... Hopefully in better shape. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That looks quite a bit different than a 70 build from Van nuys. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hey Rich,

A liitle off topic but what are the hand written letters (maybe initials) under the COPO note on the build sheet.

Any idea, Mine are different than yours??

My apologies, it is a Chassis broadcast sheet. This was on the tank of my LA 69 Z which was sold about four years ago http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif.

I would look at all the normal z factors ie: fuel line 3/8 single,disc brake stuff,exhaust hanger,speedo cable hole location,shifter tunnel hole,and the most important on a la car if not stripe delete(very uncommon) the entire top of the cowl is painted either gloss white or gloss black depending what color stripes it had only on la.cars... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The chassis broadcast sheet will show the components used on the car and some that are specific to the Z28 so it's just as good as the buildsheet found on other years/models.

There are two different sheets used. One is the Chassis Broadcast Copy, the other is the Body Broadcast Copy. The sheet shown above is the one that will verify the mechanical options used on the car.
I had this exact sheet (in better condition) that came off the top of the fuel tank on my '69 SS L78 Camaro convertible that I bought off Charlie back in 1996. It is an extremely valuable piece of documentation that proves how the car was ordered/optioned out from the factory.

How about a trim tag on a Norwood 69 z/28 car built the first week of Dec 68?
