Lots of repetitive pictures bit a copy of the slaes sheet. I found a glitch...let me know if you spot it. I'm curious.

Interesting story. Looks like he may have traded in a 1965 Corvette as part of the sale. Wonder why 4 speed transmission was upcharged on the invoice.

I'm pretty sure anything beyond a 3 on the tree was charged. I did see a tachometer for $79, but how do you install a factory tach without console gauges?. Unless it was an aftermarket from new by the dealer, maybe it never was installed. I didn't see any pictures of the dash cluster.

Yes but as you know the manual trans was mandatory with the Z28. Maybe they charged separately for the 302 and manual trans as part of the Z28 option

Mandatory is different than included. ;) The trans is always listed with Z28's.

Dealer installed tach.

Just curious, Is the Strato Bench-Bucket combo require a different than a standard 4 sp shifter handle?

Front bench seat and Fold down rear seat. Must of been ordered for family during the week and racing on the weekends. Cool options. Does anyone know of any other bench seat Z’s?

I was thinking along the same lines with Kurt. The dealer installed tach (over the counter dash mount or aftermarket of some sort) would fit in that invoice correctly. A friend of mine worked a a dealership in the 60’s and 70’s, and the price aligns with our conversation.
