1968 Z/28 garage find

fbirdguy · #1 12-01-2009, 10:01 AM

I guess this would be considered a garage find. It was parked here by the current (third) owner in 1991. It has 67k orig miles and is supposed to have original paint and interior. I couldn't tell with all of the dust but I did see some lacquer checking. It is matching #'s. The engine was gone through by the second owner who also painted the engine and engine compartment in the 80's. He also added the dress up items. Interior is beautiful. I will be listing the car for sale in the near future after we go through it and get it running and stopping. I will post more photos later.

i'm no expert, if it has original paint shouldn't the paint stripes have oversprayed edges as opossed to what looks like taped off edges in the hood and cowl ares??

He stated that the engine compartment had been repainted.

Based on the cowl painted stripe color, I would say Van Nuys, that is the beauty of that plant - you KNOW the car is the real deal (assuming the cowl has never been repainted)

Here is a pic of the trim tag. The owner says the protecto-plate is in the console but I couldn't get the door open, too tight in there.
