Hi everyone, I found what might be a pretty good deal on a craigslist strat, but I could use some help from the real experts. Here are the largest pictures I have:

The seller seems to have no clue other than he bought it at a pawn shop. The serial number is Z8065132, which suggests American made, but the color and the stickers are throwing me.
Could it be an American neck on one of the MIM "Classic Series" 50s strats? Did Fender offer Surf Green on American Standards in 08-09? I can't just go look at the guitar because it's about 70 miles away, but if I knew ahead of time that it was a genuine American Standard, it would be worth the trip.
Thanks in advance, you guys are the true experts!
