Documentation & Numbers
Original Chassis Broadcast Copy. Since this is an LA/Van Nuys Z28, the Chassis Broadcast Copy (aka "build sheet") was found on top of the gas tank. Finding the build sheet can be very useful with documenting the factory options. For example, as can be seen in box 161, the "R" denotes that this Z is a factory Rally Sport. Other significant boxes are 175 - DZ carb, 269 - UH radiator (Z/28 only), and 292 - the E70 15 are Z specific.
Engine and VIN Stamp on the right-side engine pad. Partial VIN matches vehicle VIN, meaning original, factory-installed DZ302 engine.
Transmission Code (Orignally M22, noted by the last "C") & VIN stamp. Partial VIN matches vehicle VIN, meaning original, factory-installed transmission.
