Hey Jerry, just wanted to mention that I went back and looked at the original photo of the Z, and the photo has Sept. 1967 printed at the top.  So it was the U. S. Nationals.

When you have a chance, could you check and confirm the carb date code? The bottom half of the stamp is very faint but to me looks like 8B1. Chances are that I'm misreading it, that would not fit with an 08D (of 69) build if it's original to the car.

spelling? tires? stampings? not into the details like we are, I guess?

Never thought I'd be mentioning this, especially on this site, but among the artifacts in my shop is my 76 Pontiac Astre. Long story, but a good one. A gift from my long time, but now deceased friend C. Koch, father of Jim Koch, as in Boston Beer Co. {Sam Adams}.

Also.. I am almost certain myself that it is a mask line. I don't think that the tag has ever been off.

Hi! Yes that is my 71 Cuda. It is a really neat car. It is numbers matching and only had 3 previous owners. Wow.. Your high school car sounds like it was really awesome!

OEM parts can be found at various places.  Swap meets, Team Camaro has a classified area, Craigslist, even here, just throw out there what your looking for and someone may have it laying around.  Heck.. even Dannystarr just went to a swap meet in Cali a week or so ago, and he was kind enough to tells guys to PM (personal message) him their needs and he'd keep his eyes opened.  Just an fyi..research your part and ask questions if you have to.  There are many repro's out there (nothing wrong with repro's) but if your looking for an original just be careful cause guys will tell you that it's RARE, ORIGINAL and 1of 1  

I asked about it being the original spare and got back an answer Of "I really don't care about the tires"
Tough ad to read with the misspelled words. Geez

Jerry, what size are those Hoosiers on the back of the car ?

That appears to me to be a 'mask line' where someone masked off the tag and cleaned/painted the firewall, probably during restoration (which is the best approach in my mind) vs removing the tag....

x2,  I'll take the same approach.  Btw is that your '71 383 Cuda ?  Sweet ride !  My second car in high school ('80-82) was a '72 Cuda Plum Crazy Purple, 318, white bucket int w/black dash and carpet and a white vinyl top.  Boy how I wish I had it back
