Does this look Legitimate

Can anyone tell me if this stamping appears to be original?

Want to be sure prior to purchasing.

Thanks.

Although the engine/suffix number appears Ok, the Vin sequence number looks bad. . It looks like the 7's were added later? . Both should be on their own straight lines, either can be on their own angle etc but straight to itself. . I think EH is 66/67 'Velle w/ L35 396/325 stick? . Is the orig trans in the car? . If so, check the Vin sequence number on it and compare to the engine pad number. . Good luck! ~ Pete

Both sets of numbers were placed in a jig which would yield a straight line of numerals, with all the numbers on the same baseline.

Many 67 Vin's were stamped in that fashion.

I've seen many non-Corvette ID stampings that are all over the board like this one. Not extremely unusual, in my opinion.

Thanks. I have a larger(better) photo of the vin stamp. If need be, I could email it for a better view. Thanks again.
