The alternator pulley isnt deep groove, so thats been changed. If its a NOR car you wont find the buildsheet on the tank and I think that is only a 69 LOS built car place to find them.

OO is correct for upper and lower body color. It would have a single O followed by a letter if it had a vinyl top

James:

I got a call from a friend of mine about this car in Niles, Michigan. He said that a friend of his owned it and he was a Ford guy and just wanted to get rid of it. When I saw the color combination (716 U2), I knew I was going to buy it. It had all the ear-marks of a Z/28. The right booster, decal in the glove box, 12-bolt, etc. but it didn't have the original engine. When I told him that he took me to another bldg. and low and behold the original VIN stamped MO block, 1178 crank, date coded heads, carburetor and intake. Well, I bought it. When my friend who told me about the car called he said, "I knew that you would buy it because it was a blue Camaro". Ya think?

Nice 68Z corvette bronze purchase. The 68 Zs are a great car,I have a Los 02E car with the 302 emblems on it also. I was never able to find any build sheet in my car but good luck. PS. Look everywhere possible for the POP,I found mine in between the heater ducting and firewall. Glove box was torn apart and must have slipped through.
