Title: 1969 Z/28 on Mecum
Post by: BULLITT65 on November 08, 2022, 02:19:25 AM: I was looking closer at this 69Z and the putty on the rivets for the trim tag looked suspect to me. I was curious to get others opinions:https://www.mecum.com/lots/LN1122-524293/

VIN:124379N565815

LoL

Post by: Jonesy on November 12, 2022, 03:13:18 PM: I beleive that tag has been off the car and is one of the newer repop tags.

Would love to see the drive train stampings on this one.

Post by: 68 Ragtop on February 07, 2023, 03:39:58 PM: Not one picture of the stamps that matter and a very flowery description that shows the seller has no idea what a stroker is.

Post by: Charley on February 08, 2023, 01:24:19 PM: Other than the putty in the rivets that looks like a real tag to me. Are the new repops getting that good ?
Title: Re: 1969 Z/28 on Mecum
Post by: cook_dw on February 08, 2023, 03:07:00 PM: Yes they are. I believe that is; as Jonesy mentioned, a newer repo imho.

Post by: camaronut on February 08, 2023, 04:01:45 PM: If that's a fake plate, then we're in a heap a trouble. Have to get behind the rivets inside the cowl and take a good look.

Post by: Steve Shauger on February 09, 2023, 06:04:08 PM: I'd like to see pics of the tag from a few years ago if any are available. I don't see a problem with this tag. Yes they are reproducing much better tags now....

Post by: Charley on February 09, 2023, 10:50:44 PM: Here is another 12C tag to compare and note the putty.

meaning it was like that as it left the factory, or you have seen other guys fudge it like that on original tags during some kind of restoration ?
Title: Re: 1969 Z/28 on Mecum
Post by: Charley on February 10, 2023, 01:26:59 PM: I don't know but I find it interesting they both are 12C. Would be nice to see other 12C tags.

Post by: jdv69z on February 10, 2023, 04:56:44 PM: If I was trying to fake I wouldn't leave finger print marks on the putty. Just sayin.

Post by: KurtS on February 10, 2023, 09:51:07 PM: From the factory....

Post by: cook_dw on February 13, 2023, 01:35:28 PM: I'll defer to you guys but to my ignorant eye it doesn't compare to original tags I have. Maybe I'd have a different opinion if I saw it in person.?.
