Default Re: How much more $ with docs?

I don't remember but how many line were they running in St Louis at the time? If 2 then it could explain the 2vin difference in the mix up... Granted this is probably an oversimplified explanation. If LINE ONE had car #1 LINE 2 had #2 then LINE ONE would have #3 so it would be 2 vins off correct?

St. Louis had one line, but bodies came in from another location in addition to St. Louis bodies. Bodies got pulled for one reason or another at times. I've seen that number vary by up to seven or more.

There was only one line running at St. Louis in 1967 - I worked there as a student. As I recall, it was running at a rate of 7 cars per hour.

Well the tank sticker is still on the tank.It is not in the best of shape so I am not going to try and remove it.I can make out most of it.The car is an original 435hp car.As well as being an original marina blue with white interior.The car according the sticker was originally fitted with red line tires and aluminum wheels.Too bad they are long gone.I bought the car at a fair price with out knowing if the tank sticker was there and was happy.With it I am really happy!!

Great news, you've added some serious value to your '67 Corvette. Does it have the original engine?
The dealer and zone can be decoded with help from NCRS.
