Now that would be one of the dumbest things I've heard of. What would be the point? Maybe a Japan sticker for a Japanese car would be neato but other then that.... :stupid:

Maybe it's part of that cars custom look

maybe the car was "manufactured" in the netherlands of miscellaneous Z parts!

Maybe the guy's from the Netherlands....*shrug*

I heard back from the seller and here's what he had to say.

The vin# on the regisration matches the

winshield and engine compartment plate. When

I purchased the car I was told that the car was

a "70" and that is was titled as a "71" for the

following reason: " Import cars were titled or

registered as of the date of sale in the United

States, not the date of manufacture" I have

found this to be true with my Triumph. I would

certainly go by the Vin# and any other

reference material in determining the correct

year.

The engine that was replaced had on it twin

SU type carbs. The engine is included in this

auction although the carbs had been sold

years ago. This car is far from original with the

engine, transmission, seats, etc. being

changed. Any buyer seeking an "original" Z

should continue searching other places than

this auction. Thanks for your question

As to the Triumph vs Porsche issue that is a Porsche 914 but the guy did say he has a Triumph.

At least he gives appropriate answers,

That "NL" sticker on the back means the Z has been overseas. The Netherlands (sp) possibly?

I thought it stood for the "National League" (baseball).
