I am happy to say that after complaining to ebay they kicked off the ad.

I have seen this vehicle as I was interested in buying the car until I discovered that it had a restamped block and many other problems. It was for sale on the Vancouver BC and Seattle WA Craigslist for a while but was such a disaster that it became unsellable locally. Here is the link to the ebay ad which, unfortunately is the usual dumping ground for such vehicle.

Thank you bertfam and 68camaroz28, excellent points...I get it. I also agree that it is a re-stamp.

gang-stamp holder....okay got it.

Thank you Darrell for the quick response. I appreciate the help! Here is the VIN. Anything in your database?

Greetings all,

This DZ block stamping is from a 1969 Z28 that is posted for sale on both the Vancouver, BC Canada and the Seattle, Washington Craigslist. In fact, the ad was just renewed today. The previous ad that is now deleted was a topic of discussion here a few days ago.

I would like some feedback on the authenticity of the stamping pictured below. A few people have stated that its a fake stamp. As I am not an expert on this topic I am looking for reasons why people think that it's fake, (if you think its fake).

Thank you in advance, and thank you to those that have given an opinion in the previous post.

Thank you very much BULLITT65 I really, REALLY appreciate it. As I said I have other pictures and a video that I can share with other members but it seems as if the group has spoken. FWIW, I don't think that the seller is being intentionally dishonest. I think that like me, he is simply may not know that the stamping may not be original.

Hello, I am new here and by NO MEANS an expert on these cars, although I wish that I was. I viewed this car yesterday as it is about an hour away from where I live. It is quite rusty, especially behind the rear window in the grooves that run to the trunk. I was able to pick out a few of the things that you guys have mentioned but obviously you guys picked out a lot more than I did. Its from Texas originally so you are out of luck on any Canadian paperwork. It is described as an older restoration which is probably accurate. It also has severe bubbling on each of the B pillars, and rust holes on the lower, passengers side front valance. The doors are starting to rust as well. I will try and upload pictures of these areas but feel free to message me and I will send them. The doors sag, causing them to open and close poorly. The power steering pump squeals like crazy. The carb is wrong. The window molding are badly dented.

What concerns me most is that some members here are saying that the engine stamping is a fake. I have no tolerance for such things, thanks for pointing them out.

Anyway, I hope that what I have to say about the car, and the pictures, are of some help to you.
