Has 02B body tag; VIN tag N670055. Both tags have been removed. One or both are not original to the car.
Learning more and more about less and less...

I politely asked which was incorrect to the car and was told that the firewall hidden VIN's matched the dash VIN and title, and that the T.T. was not original to car.

and here's another one that raises your eye brow.

"It started out as an original Z28".... but just happens to be an automatic   :o

If this is considered a restored car then I am doing it wrong... 

69 camaro Z28 Fully restored down to every nut and bolt

After paint the car was built back up with no expense spared, EVERYTHING put back into this car is brand new or restored to be equal to new

The rest of the new parts on this car are too much to list

Here's another:

 I'm no expert in figuring out fake Z's but the eye catcher to me was the different numeric 3 font ( re: ending numbers 37) between the engine VIN stamp and the transmission VIN stamp(flat top vs. rounded). Even I know the same gang stamper was used for the engine and transmission  ;)

Here's another:
About the only thing correct on this one is possibly the paint job !
