Over the summer I figured out the aprox born on date using my cars vin and the list of vin numbers for the cars that were produced in August 1969, I never really played much mind to th e body number. Thanks!
when I bought my car I had a friend who has owned over a dozen 69 Z's and he went with me and looked over the car, he had told me that he has never seen a orange on orange hounds tooth car and with black top U got only black stripes. He never got into the extended production facts and early Auust build, he just stuck withthe facts and that the car was restored very correct to details evrywhere and that it had very good options. Endura bumper, power steering, rosewood wheel, cowl hood, X33 car, center console w gauges, clock and spoilers D80 which was mandatory, chambered exhaust was added as not an option anymore late.
What is the time spread for your engine build?? Mine is May30th, Block casting is May26th and heads castings are May 27th, the stampings look good and I have a good partial vin stamping on the oil filter boss that matches my cars vin, all previous owners claim that the motor is original. My trans is not. I have owned a few vettes and a 1972 Z28 that had a 5 to 7 week span, but most of these 69Z cars are 1 to 3 weeks. I was told that this si because they were building so many and had so many orders i guess 20000 z28 units explains this.
