Yes, My Z is an 04A build, but I was just bringing this up incase someone else needed it. @ $1000 not bad deal.

BillOhio, you mentioned in your post about a rallye green 68 Z, got a name or ph#. Could be the one pictured on CRG homepage. My 04a Z is rallye green and I like to bump heads with other rallye green 68 Z's, thanks.

John Z, Shouldn't the VIN on the engine pad match the VIN on the cowl tag?

Late 67's and mid 68's Z/28 cars had a DF code by the valve stem(no date) and the DF was upside down(facing inward). The rightside up DF started mid to late 68 and into the 69 model year.

If I remember right I once read that VIN's were ganged stamped but the stamp numbers were'nt a 'matched set'. Some were a little higher or lower causing an uneven VIN.

Thank you all for your response. To Jon Mello, that's exactly what I have, I guess I'll have to break down the tire to get the inside dates. To Janobyte, even though our Z's were built 4 weeks apart, my DF's could have been from the last 'batch' of 07's and yours from the next 'batch' of rims produced. I believe your rims were the first batch to have the date stamped on the outside and the DF stamp facing 'inward'. I think I read some where that GM was putting out 600 Camaros a day???

Originality / DF rally wheels

I have a 68 Camaro Z/28 that was built 04A. I have one original wheel that is a 15x6 with a upside down DF code. Is this correct? Original tire is still on it so I can't check the dates on the inside of the rim.
