I usually think a black vinyl top looks good on just about anything, but i must say i think a black top on that car looks stange...kinda like a bad toupee.

It just looks like a mistake or something.....

I was thinking the same thing. The first thing you think of and compare a Z10 to is a Z11. This 69 should be a 50 50 car, not a 50 B car. A black vinyl top does not go well with Hugger Orange Rally Stripes.

My Z11 which is a documented Canada car has a VIN of 625760, with a body number of 299072, cowl tag build date of 03E. Something does seem just a bit off with the numbers of this Z10.

Just wanted to say that the oddness of this tag to my tag represents the discrepencies that occur inside GM at that time , just wanted to add my results to the circle of manufacturing at that time! I cant figure out why my tag has a later BDY # with that 04C date vs. this car above having an earlier BDY # and an 05A date...

My tag came off of a wrecked Car that was from the Phoenix area alike the origins of this one...

The Cowl Tag is fine for that VIN car. The Z10's are unique in that they were all ordered at the same time and then built over a couple of week period at the end of April, beginning of May. In 69 body numbers were assigned when the build order was accepted by GM, not when the car was scheduled to be built.

My 04L Z11 has a body number of 317xxx and is only 500 VINs before this car so comparing body numbers between cars in 69 is not always possible, especially when dealing with different models (ie X44 to X33) as some cars just didn't get built right away.

Nice looking car and it will probably bring good money, but you would think on high dollar restorations someone at the paint shop would check out how to paint the rear stripes on a Camaro, they are to close together on this car. (67/68 style). And it doesn't have the Ford "Caution Fan" sticker on the radiator shroud.

Mark,
Just wondering about your 04L? What week would "L" be? I thought the weeks of the month were lettered A to D, with an occasional E..
