wheee! Posted February 14, 2019 Share #64 Posted February 14, 2019 With a VIN like that, it is probably a 71 model , built in late 70 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/61554-ive-been-looking-for-a-project/?page=6#findComment-568337 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My misstake. There's a list of VIN's out there somewhere. His slot in the table might tell.

z8987 Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share #68 Posted February 14, 2019 It looks to me from searching vins on this site that H L S 3 0 - 0 8 9 0 6 is a 1971. Mine being 0987 would also make it a 71. The fact that the door plate is gone, and the oldest title has it as a 71, makes me believe that the guy I bought it from did something to change the title to 70. I was pretty happy with the fact that it's a 70. I know it's still a good deal, but there was a little pride in knowing I had a 70. Weird how I got there, especially when i knew nothing about Z's until I got this car. I always liked the looks, but never got into them. Is there any benefit to the changing of the year from 71 to 70?

According to this https://web.archive.org/web/20131128034951/http://www.editgrid.com/user/mlwilliams/Z_Car_Registry The car was made in 1970, but is a registered 1971. I found other sources like this that lead me to believe the same thing. I'm not going to take the time to re-register it as 71 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/61554-ive-been-looking-for-a-project/?page=6#findComment-568351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
