FWIW: I am iffy on that tag... but I'm no expert... still learning.

m22mike · « **Reply #2 on:** March 07, 2019, 01:16:53 AM »

Reproduction tag.

bobs69z · « **Reply #3 on:** March 07, 2019, 02:48:50 AM »

Absolutely sure? Could you message me what you see wrong? Thanks Bob

BULLITT65 · « **Reply #4 on:** March 07, 2019, 03:02:38 AM »

🧐 scrutinizing that pic. I do see what mike is talking about but I will reserve judgement. (for now)

bobs69z · « **Reply #5 on:** March 07, 2019, 01:13:17 PM »

He states he is second owner. Has POP, which looks good and matches stamp on engine. Partial VIN is stamped on block. VIN is124379N662120. Does that match a June production? Thanks for help...Bob

Maybe I'm just not awake but tag looks ok to me.

Yes, the body number would have been produced in late June...

Sorry but I am gonna have to disagree with the repo tag. I feel its legit although been off the car.

BULLITT65 · « **Reply #9 on:** March 07, 2019, 04:36:46 PM »

I thought the tag looked good, but rivets look questionable.

KurtS · « **Reply #10 on:** March 07, 2019, 07:33:18 PM »

Not the best angle, but tag is OK IMO.
Engine pad is OK. Axle is too late for the car - must be a story about that....

is there a link for the online ad?

It's been hexed, has the Ford caution fan sticker stuck on its shroud.

bobs69z · « **Reply #15 on:** March 11, 2019, 09:38:55 PM »

Thanks everyone for the help. I checked out the car over the weekend. Im no expert, but everything looks legit and the owner has lots of documentation. Its an older, but still a really nice paint job, the engine has just been rebuilt. Looks and runs great. Currently negotiating a price. Bob

bobs69z · « **Reply #17 on:** March 15, 2019, 10:07:52 PM »

Reached an agreement. My new Z!!

bobs69z · « **Reply #18 on:** March 15, 2019, 10:21:09 PM »

It now has rally wheels....

67conv6cyl · « **Reply #19 on:** March 15, 2019, 10:35:11 PM »

Wow! Very nice car! And great color combo I like the vinyl top.....I sure it wasn’t cheap!!

KevinW · « **Reply #20 on:** March 15, 2019, 11:02:10 PM »

Nice! Yea those wheels had to go! I like how they did the correct white stripes with the white vinyl top! And a silver grill (correct for Hugger orange).

Congrats!

BULLITT65 · « **Reply #21 on:** March 16, 2019, 03:01:48 AM »

Pretty car,congrats.
Car was just as clean underneath I have to imagine(other thread)
Seller looked like he had a street rod in the garage. Grew up around those guys(dad's buddies)

All about powder coating and polished aluminum,,meticulous group.

bobs69z · « **Reply #25 on:** March 16, 2019, 02:32:18 PM »

Came with original rally wheels. Looks much better with them on.

Sorry guys, wont let me post another pic.....

BULLITT65 · « **Reply #30 on:** March 17, 2019, 11:15:56 PM »

haha I am one of those guys with an upside down seal. Original owner must have done it.

Any time I think of correcting it, I think of Gary, So I leave it...lol😜

That's good Austin... leave it as it is for the orientation of that seal says a lot about the owner of the car!

BULLITT65 · « **Reply #32 on:** March 18, 2019, 06:12:09 AM »

Well it isn't quite the same as the "caution fan" sticker, or painted stripes over the deck lid lip (with spoiler).

Those are more obvious. The genius of this is it targets the guys that are really in the weeds with knowing this stuff.

In actuality there are not many guys who are going to see my gasket. The original owner used some type of Gorilla glue when he put it on, and I have just left it. Gary , I suspect the same amount of guys view my car, as see your Z/28 that is locked away.

ZLP955 · « **Reply #33 on:** March 18, 2019, 11:02:52 AM »

Bob did you buy that car out of Schnecksville PA?

cook_dw · « **Reply #34 on:** March 18, 2019, 01:27:27 PM »

I know of this car. If the previous owners initials are JB then its a great car. He is a standup dude.

JB as in Jim Beam?

Great car....greater drinks. As for standing up....well....after a few rounds, I don't know!

bobs69z · « **Reply #36 on:** March 18, 2019, 09:28:45 PM »

The original owner was from Schnecksville. Pa. I bought it off second owner who's initials are JB.

68camaroz28 · « **Reply #37 on:** March 18, 2019, 10:33:45 PM »

Well it seems you have done well so congratulations!

Charley · « **Reply #39 on:** March 19, 2019, 03:13:14 AM »
