Default 69 California Z/28

I've been looking for an original paint Z/28 for a long time. Does anyone know this car?

Z/28 listing

I've been talking with the owner's representative and he sent me additional pictures but doesn't appear to know much about Camaros. Is anyone in the Bay Area available to check it out for me before I make flight arrangements? Thanks in advance for any help, Ed (847) 809-8022

Interesting car with the cowl and stripe delete and RS option, but it appears the auction is over?

Somebody else who thinks that all Zs were cowl induction, I suppose.

Would the cowl tag have a -- for special order paint in this case? I seem to recall the stripe delete Zs I have seen have. I would ask.
And is that a fall of 68 short spoiler? I can't tell by the angle the pic was taken at.
If I could make out the reflectorized white plate number, which would mean the car has been registered more recently than not, I Could run the smog history, to see if it had one prior to the 25 year exemption.

Going off the VIN sequence, it is a Nov 68 build- correct spoiler and pre ZL2 RPO.

But the flat hood was standard, so how could there be a Cowl delete?

Or am I missing something here?

no, you have it right

some people think because it doesn't have an OPTION, then it is a "delete option". That is incorrect.

for instance, i have seen people refer to a car without the OPTIONAL console as a "console delete". Not sure, but they may think it is standard and you had to "delete" the standard feature.

In the case of the hood or a console, they are both OPTIONS, so having a car without them is not having a car with "delete" options ...

the Z also has the GM hood locks, cool car from the limited pictures
