1973 Z28

[JL_Moore19]

Currently putting this 73 Z28 back together,
all original numbers matching
Has been in a garage since 1980
30k original miles
4 speed 350
Was wondering if anyone knows about how many of these were made with the option of no stripes combined with the RS LT package on a z28. Have not been able to find the build sheet
Thanks

Welcome to the sickness and nice find, a few more pics would be nice.
I don't think anyone knows how cars were built with combined options, but if someone does they will be on this site. In 73 there were 11,574 Z28's built, 11,364 RS's built and 32,327 Type LT's built, in just about any combination. The you have the Type LT (the LT is a Model not an option) with the Z28 option Gm did not put on stripes or Z28 badging. The RS could be had with the base or LT models. Check out this link for lots of info.

Welcome to NastyZ28!

Unfortunately, most Norwood cars did not include a build sheet.

LT, RS, Z28 is a very nice combo, but (as said above) no way of knowing the total count on that combination.
Probably a few thousand so it's not like it's considered a "rare" car.

Does it have A/C too?

Nice, solid looking car!
Hopefully, that rear quarter can be pulled back into shape without tearing too far into it.

Keep us posted on this project!

We have been going through the engine and plan on dropping in back in within the next couple weeks!

Just a FYI, wrong steering wheel insert and the Z28 on the glovebox shouldn't be there.

Where is the front end? Do you have all the RS stuff for the 73 with the car? 73 is unique on the way the RS parts are bolted together.

Missing the RS front?
73 had extra braces which are going to be hard to find.

That’s how the original owner had it, z28 is just a sticker he through on it back in the 70s.

I have the original one as well as a brand new front end for it. That the owner bought back in the 70s
