The National Registry for 1968 Z/28s began in March 2001. As of May 17, 2006, 359 1968 Z/28s have been located and documented. Listed below are the statistical highlights. | |||
Plant Production: | |||
Los Angeles Plant: 21% | Norwood Plant: 79% | ||
Approximately 76% of the Z/28s were built in the last 5 production months of the year (March 1968 through July 1968). Early production 1968 Z/28s were very rare. Only 5% were built in the first 4 months (August 1967 through November 1967). | |||

(Only 17 cars have a console without the gauges) | |||
Power Steering: 13% | |||
Standard Air Cleaner: 92% |
Cowl Plenum: 7% |
Factory Headers: 3% | |
(Cowl Plenum option was a much rarer option for the Z/28 in 1968 versus 1967. This lack of popularity may have been one factor that caused GM to go to the new cowl induction hood option in 1969). 7 cars have the cowl plenum and factory headers. | |||
Its very difficult to verify this, but approximately 40% of the documented cars still have their original engine block and transmission case. I expect this number to decline as more cars are documented. | |||
Transmission: | |||
M21: 88% |
M22: 8% |
M20: 4% | |
Rear Axle Ratio: (all cars have 12 bolt rear axle housings and Positraction) | |||
