If all camaros where built in norwood how are canadian cars able to get build sheets. Yet cars in usa not able to get them. I would love to get mine. Also year's ago i was told by a usa camaro club officer that there were found yet when they went to get permission to release them from chevrolet there vanished. If gm is hurting why won't the release them & make some quick money. It also would stop the clone cars. I hate to see people taking by a bogus car.

Try your local dmv & see if you can do a title search you may get lucky in some state's you can do it. Also if you have the original block or 4speed transmission with the last 6 off the vin stamped it help's. Also having the protecto plate in the back of the warranty book helps. I t is hard to prove with out this.  Also if you know any off the previous owner's call them.  Hope this helps.

In tennessee you can run a title search they keep record's for as long as the car stay's in the state. I did mine in 1989 & got all prior owner's plus copy of original dealer sheet @ mso. Now several friend's that did with same result's. Last one done they blacked out previous owner's names but still got copy of dealer sheet @ mso because of privacy laws. Hope this help's. good luck!

First i would see if your state dmv can do a title search. In tennessee you can &  i was lucky i got a copy of all the original owner's plus copy of the dealer invoice plus mso from gm. Now because off the privacy law the mark out all the prevous owner's names.It is a shame you can get all the information on a computer on a person but we can't help out people find about previous owner's. I talked to all the previous owner's & they were thrilled to now the car was still allive!  You might tell us a little about your z-28 because i had i had a freind that had a 69 rs/z-28 that was leman's blue with very low mile's which was used to race but not hurt.
