Misc markings and labels
« on: December 23, 2023, 12:51:22 AM »
I own an unrestored 50K mile 69 Z28, mostly all there. I came across some interesting marking and labels that you may, or may not have seen before. I've made comments on the pictures.

I found similar markings on my 15,000 mile car.  Mine had 2 inspection tags on the heater box and had similar grease pencil number.  My understanding is the handwritten number is an assembly sequence number.  Mine had a "3" and I found the same "3" on top off my gas tank.  I did not find any yellow tape.  Steering column and gauge cluster tags are the "norm" for identifying applications for those components. 
Sounds like you have a really cool Z - post some pics!

I like the Captured detail of the "Spray" sealer around the perimeter of the Heater box, a detail rarely seen in restorations.

Update on the yellow tape. This tape on the heater box was to secure the unused orange glove box wire, since my car did come originally include the glove box light.

The crayon marks are common to see on the heater box.

Skip thanks for sharing pics. We are always looking for detailed pics like this.

Do we know the details about this car like the build month/week?   If not would you be willing to tell us or post a pic of the body tag?

My 5A Z/28 had 87 written on top of the heater box and this written on the gas tank.

Is there anything on your broadcast sheet that references the 57?

Bryon, the car is an Norwood early June build.

From the VIN, it was built mid-June.
Yes, DG is for Dark Green.
57 is the rotation/sequence #. Will also appear on other parts like the gas tank.
