D80 on trim tag
As far as I have seen the D80 was not shown on the Norwood trim tags until mid '69. Check out the REAL Z28 body, EBay # 320031631319.

Re: D80 on trim tag
I thought D80 was seen on tags as early as May.

D80 didnt show up on tags until sometime in May. But this tag is such an obvious fake, it probably doesnt matter anyway.

Re: D80 on trim tag
Reproduction Bodies, repro Tags, what next, reproduction Engines with correct broach marks and stampings? I guess if there is enough money in it people will do anything.

Paul [/ QUOTE ] Already long here and I hate the term personally but they're called "Restoration Engines" and even accepted in Corvette circles as Ok. . In reality it's a "perfect forgery" restamp and a way to skirt saying so. . It's also the way to term it amongst those in the know yet those who don't get duped so when they find out the truth they can either admit it's a forgery or join the 'liars' club! . ~ Pete

Re: D80 on trim tag
The "Corvette" guys mastered the art of rebroaching (the complete top of the block if need be)stamping/and even aging the stampings, a long time ago.

[/ QUOTE ] Stefano, If that is true, then why does the NCRS make such a big deal about broach marks? It's often a topic of discussion there..... Stated another way, if the broach marks & stampings can be "cloned" easily enough, why do they make such a fuss?
