alternator date?
 

This is on my 68 396, does anyone know what date this is and what do the x's mean? http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a180/mr396/e20.jpg

M was used for December. The letter I was not used. I am not sure why the 700 was x'ed out.

Date is (8) 1968 (M) December (28) 28th.

The X's are the proper way for the factory to mark out a mistamp or incorrect stamping. Would assume that whatever is under the 3 X's was suppossed to be "1100".

Do you have a better picture (different angle) there looks like there is another set of very light numbers under the date code as well.

Thanks,This is on a 07C 1968 396 a/c camaro. Looks like the original has been replaced early on. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...6/MVC-047S.jpg
