Default '73 ZO7 Option



I was doing some research to see if there was an option on my '73 for a passenger side mirror when I found what was referred to as a Z07 option available and referenced as "Off Road Suspension and Brake Package". I'm trying to determine if my '73 includes the option. Does anyone have this option or know what it included as the brake and suspension upgrade?

Asked and answered many times over on this forum. Use the SEARCH function to stumble upon a wealth of information. Short answer: Probably not on your car.

Do you have any original documentation for your car? If you have Z07, it will show on the tank sticker, window sticker, or the order copy. Do you have factory air on your car? You could not get Z07 with factory air.

Do you have a Corvette Blackbook? From the Blackbook: "The Z07 package was available only with L82 or LS4 engines, and required J50 [power brakes] and M21 [close ratio 4 spd]. It included special front and rear suspension and heavy duty power front and rear brakes. It was not available with C60."

There were only 45 cars with Z07.

Passenger side mirror was a dealer installed option.
