I would hate to be the guy that spent 17,000 under the hood and see as many things wrong as I did

Who in the world would stamp a short pad block.  One thing about it, it could be the only one!

Decoding/Numbers / Re: 1969 Z28 interesting engine stamp

This also is a burnished brown LA Z that was on eBay a few years ago. The seller wanted an offer before you could have someone look at the car. It never got any bids and I have no idea what happened to it. The original engine was out of it and it had another engine in it so you got both. The pictures were terrible but it was a pretty neat car. I think it had an Endura bumper also

The seller posted the back side of the cowl stamp and looks like 2 sets of numbers

Kurt was it a whole car or shell? Maybe a shell explains the leaning look

My car is about a month behind this one.  The pictures I have of mine are when the factory glue  was smeared over the stamp and hard to compare.   It would be interesting to see the back of the cowl.  Was there a tag or body with the vin tag?   Block looks to be a restamp and the Chinese booster makes me wonder what else is wrong.  Oh the upside down air cleaner seal also

I like this color and options.  Looks like another vin under what’s stamped and it has a digit wrong

Didnt the endura bumper have 2 different brackets than the chrome one?  Might be a clue if it came with one

the part number on my gm pan is 00360450.  I did see some pictures online but not sure if they still have them.  I might have bought this 6 or 7 years ago

If you blow up the engine vin there is another set of numbers there.  I dont like either stamps and the suffix is not normal.  My Z is the same week

I have a new gm one that was supposed to be for a 302 several years ago.  I will have to look but not sure the dipstick is on the same side
