Mystery 396 casting date

[indyjps]

GM typically has their annual shutdown the first 2 weeks of july. i cant guarantee that happened in 1968, but if the car was built over the shutdown in 1968 and built during overtime there would be a high likely hood that the operators were not the "normal" operators @ each station. overtime would have been run on seniority. so the likely hood of having an inexperienced person @ the stamping station could have resulted in the numbers not being updated. just a thought.

I checked the CRG web site and found the 1967-1969 end-of-month vin report.It says Nor numbers are... end of may 68 vin# 465482 and June 68 482588..... That would make my 468959 a June 68 build.I think the CRG should look in to this and correct it. http://www.camaros.org/geninfo.shtml

There's nothing to correct. Several months are off, that being one of them. Please read all the caveats that are posted before that data. That is from GM records. Maybe GM will correct it, but I'm not sure who to ask.
