Re: Is this a real Z28?

contact jon mello or jerry. They have the vin#s of the first 25 67 z28's built.

Re: Is this a real Z28?

VIN #'s are not on the memo that you are thinking of.

Re: Is this a real Z28?

I thought the 25 list with the selling dealers had the vin#s.

Re: Is this a real Z28?

What a deal huh Mark?

Re: Is this a real Z28?

Ron, it's a shame he spent all that money on it when it would have made a gorgeous "SS" or "RS".

Notice no provision on the floor pans for the factory radius rod?

Re: Is this a real Z28?

This was the owners reply to me.
Roger,
I have no docs but I was able to trace it back to the 2nd owner, I'm number 5.
It is #20 of the first 25. I didn't even know about the Z registry until I listed the car and someone told me about it.

Allthough for 45k you cant restore a car for that price so even though it might not be a z,yes it would have made a nice SS/RS clone.Risky selling it as a real 67 Z if you cant prove it.

As long as the trim tag is the original, w/ 4P and 3L wasn't it an SS/RS already just not one of the early Z's unless solidly substantiated?.
