not sure, but EVERY 67-72 Z28 had them (at least the real ones that GM produced), the thousands of clones/tributes/fakes made since then rarely do, they just put emblems & stripes on ...

Wasn't aware bumper guards were part of the package. Why did they do that?

The sprung height of a Z28 was differant that the other Camaros and in 68 and 69 the rear's were required by some federal mandate for crash worthiness. That is why they are included.
I am sure others here can explain it much better than that.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

I've been trying to get my hands on a 70 norwood Z28 that is gold & the tag only has the color code & no stripe #'s after it & no -- . Hey Chuck what do you think of no # after the color code??? The last 70 i ran into on E-bay about 3 years ago had the color code & then a 0 after it.Any thoughts on those differance ?

Not true. Rear bumper guards were not standard on '67 Z-28s. They were available as an option but were not automatically part of the Z-28 package that year. Standard rear bumper guards for the Z began in '68.
