The DZ pad stamp in the photo does not compare with other March 12 DZ block stampings. The latest known 386 casting usage is mid-January. A March 12 engine would have used a 618 casting.

The car appears to be a real Z/28, originally Fathom Green.

You can see remnants from the original VIN under the "new" one on that transmission.

Weird, car is listed twice on ebay with two different buy it now prices? I guess the first offer is a better deal.
