The 70+ Camaros had ONE vin stamp on the firewall as youve mentioned. The 2nd Gen enthusiasts at www.nastyz28.com have never seen evidence of any other body/frame VIN stamping.

There is of course the VIN tag riveted into the dash area

The VIN's were also stamped on the Z-28 and 402 Blocks and Transmissions.

My 70 Z has two on the firewall. One was near the heater core and the other at the lower part of the firewall near the tunnel on the passenger side.

That's not true. I recall seeing posts about the subframe VIN on NastyZ28.com. I then looked at my subframe to see if I could find one and I did. Unless I was dreaming it. I'll take a look when I get home.

A member here had a very low mileage 70 Z that had a picture of the front sub frame with the VIN number stamped on it. The stamp was facing the outside underneath the drivers door. I looked on mine (not very carefully mind you) and could not find any stamp on the front subframe.

It was Kenny Pascoe's 3500 mile Z that I saw the VIN stamped on the front subframe.

Isn't that the low mile Z in the for sale section that's on ebay right now?

PM K Pascoe (member here). He may still have the picture of the VIN stamped on the front subframe.
