This is the best photo I could find of the teardown on my 68Z with the black cowl paint- You have to disregard the orange stripe change that someone did later in the cars life. The Gloss black in the cowl (LOS) style can be clearly seen.

Here is my original cowl paint. 03D norwood. These are in a thread here somewhere but thought it would be good with the others. The black on the firewall IS NOT original. The original owner did that with a brush. I believe the dum  dum on the driver side is the original also.

I may have posted these before however I saw late in the discussion someone stated something about black stripe cars... I have an example of a black stripe which illustrates the difference in the black stripe and black out colors. The stripe black is sprayed with a much finer mist.

I thought about why I would even mention this then post the remains of the car, as it has detail of cowl paint, Body went to the scrapper during the scrap steel price spike in the 2000's my buddy shot the cowl tag and automotive body in a truck as it headed out for melt down.

I am sure that "our" concerns about mental health and the topic of self injury are serious and I support my local Kitsap Mental Health suicide help phone line via employee deduction to & via United Way direct deposit via the Combine Federal Campaign.

My heart goes out to ANY family that has to deal with this.

This thread has to do with Z28 Stripes on the Cowl - how about the wiper cowl panel?

I have noted that the Norwood Original paint wiper cowls do not follow the recess, the stripe inside stripe extends outside the recess by approx 5/16-3/8"
The Original paint LA cars do follow the recess area.
IF anyone has an original paint car which has something different please share photos.

Not something different, but perhaps a better angle showing the original paint on the cowl and how it extends over the recess. My late 69 08C car

James (firstgenaddict),

The original yellow X77 Z28 Norwood 04C build car, VIN N630018 - did you purchase it at Mecum - Indy this past May?  I live in Indy and attended Mecum twice and could not stop photo documenting this amazing original survivor '69 Z28.  As I recall, only the tires were replaced on the car.  The odometer indicated only 33,661 miles! What was really interesting about this car were the Harper College student parking decals still in the rear widow from years, 1968 - 1969 and 1969 - 1970, along with original oil change and service sticker.  It appeared to be a very complete car and outstanding time piece.
