Trim tag from Van Nuys
« on: December 02, 2015, 03:37:49 AM »
I have a 69 Z/28 built at the Van Nuys plant in March 1969.  Since that plant do not use "X" codes to identify the Z/28's did they use the D80 code on the trim tag to identify rear spoiler cars?

No, LOS cars didn't get that coding on the trim tag either.

Mine is 04A and VIN falls smack between those two - 528419. Either of you get your actual production date from NCRS?

VN production is more difficult to estimate, but I'd guess 3 April was your production day ZLP  (L528419)...  hopefully one of those guys you solicited will have their production date for you to refine... :)

Yes, I had to humbly apologise earlier this year when I stated my production date was definitely April 1st, then re-checked my NCRS letter to find it was actually April 3rd.......
Just curious how the other 2 member's car production dates fit in around mine.
