Curious if this is a real original GM tag. What do we all think?... Danny

I say real too.  Interesting color combo on the Z, triple green!

Was on Craigslist. Somebody flagged it and it’s been removed.

I am surprised as it looks lightly embossed and has a weird grain texture to it. Shows ya what I know. I was going to take a ride today and maybe go see it. We know it has incorrect things like exhaust and back wheels, maybe all the wheels.
 Wonder if I will be able to see the VIN on the engine and trans? Not going to look at ANYTHING else unless I get good shots of the VINS. Will update if I go. It's about an hour and 20 from me. Maybe 10 minutes more or less either way. The flash blew on my nice Sony camera a couple days ago  :'(. Second one to do that, exact same model.

If as described, the price is reasonable.

I think I asked about that car over a month ago as I was going to head through there on my way to AZ and didn't get any responses.

Sorry, I didn’t see your earlier post.

The adjacent firewall areas are also grainy, not just the TT.

No apologies needed, I was just making a comment that no one seemed interested in the car then.  I was willing to look at it in person if anybody was.
