Help With a Z Cowl Paint Photo

Norwood didn't paint Z11's (or Z28's) like that, they had a smaller mask that extended about 2" outside the cutouts into the wiper well. Los Angeles built cars had the cowl paint that extended pinchweld to pinchweld, so you'll need a picture from an LA built car.

Mark, I have seen many Norwood cars painted similiar (large masked area) to LA cars. This car is a 4C Norwood.

Here's how my (mostly) original paint red '67 Z-28 looked on the top of the firewall. This car was built 05A at the LOS plant.

Here how my gold NOR-built '67 Z-28 was masked off on the top of the cowl.

Sure looks to me like they were masked off as my 68 Z was.

i have an 05A norwood car, and the top of the cowl was white to match the stripes.

Both are black-stripe 69 NOR Zs:

Out of all the people involved here, does anyone have an image of the wider cowl paint that's at least 1.6MB in size that they're willing to have printed in a book along with their name? The images Dave posted are great, but unfortunately too small for my picky Editor.

Thanks,

I have an unrestored Black 69 RS/Z 04C with white cowl top in my garage right now, I will take a photo of the cowl top for you before the weekend. 8 MB photo with no flash.

Here is an older one

BTW... early norwood cars had much more overspray than the later ones.

Here are a few I shot today.
If these will work PM me for the hi res shots









VIN - Was stamped after stripe paint was applied
