REGISTER YOUR Z16

Free CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY

 

If you own a Z16 Chevelle, please contact us to register your Z16. A Certificate of Authenticity will be forwarded to you, free of charge, with your proof of ownership. A current title or registration in your name showing the VIN of the subject Z16 is required. The mandatory form to submit is here.

 

Please note: free certificates are only available to private individual hobbyists with ownership in their name.

 

Z16 NOT ON LIST?

 

If you know of or own what you believe to be a Z16 that is not listed, please forward photos of the vehicle, trim tag and supporting documents (Protect-O-Plate, Dealer Invoice, Broadcast Copy, etc.). The required form to submit is here. The car will be added to the list and a Certificate issued at the Registrar’s discretion.

DISCLAIMER:

 

The information presented herein is believed true and accurate and has been gathered and transposed with due diligence. However, errors are possible and the named individuals, their heirs and successors assume no responsibility or liability for this information. While a VIN appearance in this list is believed to represent a genuine Z16 Chevelle, no guarantees are made nor should the appearance of the VIN in the list be the sole determining factor for authenticating a Z16. Not all VINs have been personally inspected by a Z16 expert. Use all information presented here at your own risk and without recourse.

otherwise) without specific written permission.

     

      Please note that the public data below is a fraction of the data collected and held in the files of the Z16 Registry. Much information is cataloged regarding replacement engines, condition of vehicles prior to restoration and other interesting details including history. Much of this information is otherwise known only to the owner or prior owner of the vehicle and it is held in the strictest of confidence. VIN information is on file for many existing genuine IX coded engines that are either in their non-original Z16 or not in a Z16 or vehicle. There are more Z16 engines extant than Z16 automobiles.

 

      The information held helps prevent fraudulent and dishonest activity. The personnel of the Z16 Registry will continue to use the facts gathered to help police the Z16 hobby. It is believed this preemptive move, along with the very unique parts used on Z16s, will help prevent the fakes and rampant deception now occurring in other specialty Chevrolet muscle cars.

 

      There are also a few Z16s that are believed to exist that are not included in the VIN List because their VIN is not known. In one case, the owner refuses to divulge it, and in several others, contact information is not available.
