Yes that's the original color.

The Z paint code was still used for special paint when that car was built. They did not start using Z for British Green until that paint color became available in January 1968.

- - for special paint started January of 1968.

What is the build month and week of that car?

Wow and to think its out there on craigslist for sale of all places. Amazing what still shows up every now and then.

Congrats....awesome car!

I left a message for the guy I was sure was orig. owner but it wasn't him. Tore into the car more today. This thing is amazing. Found a 1967 dime inside a 1/4 below the 1/4 glass. Found a Kodak Viewmaster disk and a notebook in drivers door.

trans had duplicate tags bolted together upside down. Rear wheel lips are rolled. Vin was stamped on top of trans.

Nice find! Looks like a perfect candidate for a Super Car Workshop restoration.

I'm thinking the holes in the cowl panel were probably to mount some type of gauge.

Two transmission tags? Don't think I have seen that before.

What's the date on the 1111266 distributor?

Not unusual to see the partial VIN in top of trans for a LOS car.
