67 L78 rsss

[69ssrag]

I came across a 67 rsss 396 car that had a matching #s
MQ code motor but a t/400 trans. A 87 year old man ownes it
and i might buy it. He purchased it in 1972 and said it was drag raced until he bought it. I know the L78 came only with
the manual trans. I am going back to look at it this weekend
and taking down all the #s. I'm sure the car was converted
to auto for more consistant ETs.Also the cowl tag was missing or stolen. Could this car be a conversion car? It is defenitly a real deal car and the owner has Know idea what this car is. He has put some funky non origanal parts on this truly rare camaro. Any input would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance.
