69 Z on BAT - was it orange or silver originally?
Car is currently Hugger Orange with white stripes, and trim tag is coded for HO. But the description says the color was switched from Cortez Silver, which would imply that the tag is not original to the car. Not sure which it is, but the seller needs to jump on there and clarify.
Engine has DZ stamp, but it's covered in orange paint and the picture isn't the best. No picture of VIN on engine. Transmission VIN stamp looks sketchy to me. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...amaro-z-28-43/ |
I believe that trim tag was made to 'fit' the car's restored color combo, i.e not the original. And maybe it is just something weird with the camera lens, but that D in the DZ stamp looks massive compared to what I am used to seeing.

Car is the same week as mine. Some obvious differences in the tag. The transmission is within a day of mine, engine is 13 days later than my assembly stamp

Tag is a repro.

Fake tag and a color change.
$98k. |
My 2 cents. Yes Hugger Orange has more visual impact than Cortez Silver in person but why change a tag to change a color? Oh, by the way, Cortez Silver with black stripes trumps Hugger Orange with white stripes "in my opinion".

It now has houndstooth seats and deluxe door panels. Today the seller looked through his stuff and found what looks to get the original tag. Well some cars original tag!
|
I hope the owner figures out how to install the breather seal, always gets to me! :flag:

----Even if a guy didn't know how to tell a repop tag he should be able to tell that this tag is waaaay too new and unmarked in any way to be original.....Bill S
