Originality / 1969 tail light bulbs

« on: July 18, 2022, 11:56:47 PM »

I have a 1969 Z28 (non-RS) and have a question on the correct tail light bulbs.  When my parking lights are on, the inboard parking light is much brighter than the outboard.  Current outboard parking/turn signal/brake light bulb is 1157, reverse light bulb is 1156 and inboard parking light bulb is 1156.  Is that correct?

Decoding/Numbers / 1969 Z28 Block ID

« on: July 17, 2022, 03:05:26 PM »

I have a 1969 Z28 and the engine block has VO42OTND stamped on the RF.  I am trying to determine originality.  I have owned the car for 40 years and have just started to research it.  There is no DZ in the serial number, and I understood that was on all 69 302s.  I'm not sure if this engine is original.  The block casting numbers are 3970010 and GM29 on the LR.  I looked near the oil filter and saw no other numbers.  Any ideas would be appreciated.
