Anyone Know This 71 Z?
 
This is a nice looking car from the looks of the auction. Something like this could sway me away from looking for a Corvette. What do you guys see that is not correct besides the obvious exhaust and powder coatings?

Not literally, but, yes Waukesha is just west of me. Happy to inspect for anybody if the seller gets it to my shop.

I'm in contact with the owner. Colin, I might take you up on your offer if I decide to buy. I need to see the cowl tag yet and he is getting me the part# from those angle plug heads. The rest of the engine is supposed to stock.

Tim, you were looking for an auto hah?

Ask him for all of the codes again. The code break down for the axle is not correct. You don't skip letters to make up the code.

The correct code for the axle CGB077 (incorrect layout) is CG is 3:73.

Matter of fact the more I look at the code he posted on the auction it doesn't look right. The date codes for 71 were month and day not day of the year built.

Also ask him about the shifter and other incorrect items.

Opps, hang on I think I am wrong about the date thing.

077 is the 77th day of the year. Was thinking of something else. But, CGB is not 4:10 gears it is 3:73 gears with Buffalo source.

Nice looking car, I see a few things that bug me, For instance, No rear bumper guards
and them tail pipes look like they are waiting to take somebody’s shin’s out. I could go
on I won’t rip on it too bad. It’s a nice looking car…

I'd like to hear your comments Mark. I'm not a 2nd gen expert. Here is a pic of the cowl tag. I'll question him on the 4:10's.

YOu guys have got to be kidding me about the exhaust, Nothing a grand can't fix. Come on now, I guess if it was a COPO car or Yenko you would complain https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/Charley.gif
