Reference Details
- Common issue
- Treating a Z28 stripe-color/exterior-trim notation, a Norwood-only tag convention, or a reproduced/altered tag as complete proof of an individual car without VIN, paperwork, and drivetrain-stamp corroboration.
- Confidence
- reported
- Correct value
- 1970 Camaro cowl trim-tag evidence should first match 12487 Camaro Sport Coupe body style and the assembly plant coding; the checked trim-tag reference reports that some Norwood SS and Z28 cars carry exterior-trim codes such as 28.xx for Z28, with the suffix identifying stripe color.
- Where to check
- Driver-side cowl trim tag under the hood; compare body style, plant, paint, trim, build-date, and any Norwood exterior-trim code with paperwork and drivetrain evidence.
