Sent last reply without finishing. If our cars are only 174 units apart ( vin # ), would the body numbers be as far off as 12310? My car was 174 Vin #'s before and cowl tag has "NOR230628"

My 01C X-77 was 174 units before your car. Same shift I'd say.

 Besides this car not being the right color ( 65 ), wouldn't it have a mandatory tach ? It just leads me to a question, when were tachs mandatory in Z's ?

  In looking around at aftermarket sheetmetal, what is the best one to use that is out there. Quarter panels to be specific. The car I have won't be for show but for driving and weekly local cruise nights.

  I am also looking for any info ( Or The Original DZ-302 ) on a 1969 Z/28 X-77 Vin # 124379N586547 that anyone might have. The car is from the Buffalo area of Western New York.

Originality / Re: Is my DZ motor a phony?
« on: February 04, 2007, 02:26:58 AM »
  I was checking out some 69 Z's online and found a Daytona Yellow Z28/RS at Corvettesandmusclecars.com ( Northwest Auto Sales ). The trim tag has a 12A build date but also has X-33. Is that a phony tag on that car? Just wondering as I keep reading that 12B is the transition to X-code dates?

General Discussion / Re: 69 z/28 what to with it?

Hey guys, Thanks for all the opinions on what to do with it. I am currently looking for a DZ 302 engine or if that is too cost prohibitive then I will make another small block to closely resemble one. I was looking for the easy way out when I was thinking about a Yenko clone.

 As far as you discussions go about crossmembers or heater cores etc... all the parts with the exception of the front springs and motor mounts are what the car came with. The only thing lacking is the motor. I just see all these other Z's with thier motors and get frustrated about mine. I have a couple people interested in the JK block who are looking to do the same as me but with thier Chevelles'.

 I guess I do have to remind myself from time to time that I do have an original 69 Z/28 with or without the motor of the 20,000 or so sold back then in 69, not one of the 40,000 69 Z's that are for sale now.

General Discussion / 69 z/28 what to with it?
« on: August 12, 2006, 07:28:06 PM »
  I have a 69 Z/28 ( x-77, 01C build date, 124379N586xxx) that is not a very well optioned car. The only option I see is a vinyl roof, not even a factory tach. I don't have any documentation on the car but I have owned it since 1988. There is no question that it is a real Z. The original DZ-302 is long gone and was not there when I purchased the car. I believe the M-21 and 12 bolt are original to the car. The car is in need of a restoration which will include floors and such, but it is driveable.

 So I guess I would like opinions of what to do next with it. Putting together a DZ-302 would be too costly as I have tried to price one by pieces or purchase it whole. The car does have in it a 396 (1969  JK 396 325 hp Chevelle SS). I am thinking about doing a Yenko Clone with the car. Would this be stupid to do with a real Z ? How much is a  Z/28 without the DZ and in need of a restoration worth on the market roughly ? Again the car is very restorable. Do I sell it and just make something out of a base model ? Do I restore it and put a small block in it to look like it belongs there ? Restoring and making a Yenko Clone is my easiest route as there is a big block in it even though it is not correct.

 Any of your thoughts are appreciated.

Decoding/Numbers / 69 Z/28 Any Info
« on: June 12, 2006, 01:03:01 AM »
I know it's very very doubtful but does anyone have any info on 12437nor586547 (x-77) or DZ that belongs to it. Car is from the New York/Pennsylvania area. I'm new to the site but wow what a wealth of knowledge.
