Production numbers on RS Z28's?

[ko-lek-tor]

  One of my friends in particular (who still owns the car today in unrestored condition) has an RS C.O.P.O. and many believed throughout the 70's and 80's that the car was a fake, simply because it has the RS option. 

Is this friend's car Green? His intials G.S.? You should PM me.

The CRG db has just over 1400 Z/28s; 18.55% are also RS.

I have seen many in my 40 years in the hobby. Owned one '83-'89; not only a virtual twin to the one just found in Brooklyn they are within 50 VINs. There were several more in the area. I have paperwork from Martz Chev; 3 of the 10 Z/28s they had were RS as shown in JM's '69 book. There's a Cortez Silver Z/28-RS featured in the book also. Friends also had them; Daytona Yellow/black vinyl/yellow houndstooth JL8 Z/28-RS and a 16k mile Le Mans Blue Z/28-RS that was recently sold. I have a small accumulation of factory paperwork copies; 7 more Z/28-RS including the Ron Pratte car sold at B-J AZ this year and another with JL8. Check out the April '69 Hi-Performance Cars magazine for a test of a Daytona Yellow Z/28-RS from Baldwin Chevrolet.

Nothing rare at all about a '69 Z/28-RS.

Thanks Bill!

Everyone else - My estimate is just what I have seen in my area.

And RS/SS cars in 69 are less common around here than RS/Z28s.

Guys...from HS thru college age (I can't include myself in that category anymore!),  mostly all they think about are cars and girls!   

I am sorry Gary, like Bryon, I must take issue with some of your statements. I STILL mostly think about cars and girls! Keeps me feeling young I guess. Maybe we are college age...I mean we are still learning, right?

  .. Bentley! .. at our age.. we are not supposed to admit that!   especially publicly...  or we'll be called that worst thing of all... 'a dirty old man'..

Sending you a PM.  Sorry about the late reply it's been a while since I've checked in.
