Do you know the stamp date?
Can't find it in my notes, so probably didn't document it...... was a few years ago.

Here is another one, this is an 04C survivor X77 that was posted for sale (IIRC) a few years ago by Stefano over at sYc. The third picture shows the trunk lid date stamp, not so easy to make out last digit but it's definitely T A1x, so has to be week 10 or later - up to 3rd week of April, week 16 or thereabouts.

Ok, well crap..  That makes things a little harder then..

Darrell,  Hope I can help and add to your data.  Here's the original trunk lid to 03B Nor Z.  Has no tabs.  Also, was there a particular location where GM date stamped these lids ?  I looked all around and couldn't find anything   ???  The lid was repainted to white back in the 70's,  so maybe it's hidden underneath somewhere.

That does help.  Thanks Darrell.


The stamp is in the lower center portion of the inner layer portion of the lid.

You can see the date stamp in my 3rd picture above, to the right of the jack instruction label. There is often another stamp in the center, below the jack label, but it's often fainter (less defined) like the one visible in that same photo.

Update to my 03B Z.   I was easily able to find the date stamp near where some white paint was beginning to peeling.  The original Dusk blue can be seen underneath the white which also assures me this is the original lid as well.

Dated:  T A 10  (10th week of the Calendar year, first week of March)

Here's an original T52 dated trunk lid on an 01B Norwood '67 Camaro. The latch and bolts are painted.

It's probably under the jacking instructions.

maybe 1 9 left to right honestly can not make it out for sure.

I still haven't got the body shop pics when it was stripped ,anything he found he recorded. I did not want under the deck lid touched so it may forever be a mystery. Of course could probably make a pretty educated guess.

I'm assuming hole above date code was for Ziebart?? Looks punched, not drilled.
