Does this look Legitimate

That stamp is correct..IMHO...I recall the exact same stamping on that 396/325hp 67 Chevelle I had a couple years back. No doubt in mind that car was 100% original..2 older phone company guy workers owned it since new. It was legit..

Wilma,
The engine is in a 67 El Camino, 4 sp with A.I.R. still attached. By the way, I am a not so old phone guy myself..(14 years @ Bell/verizon) Thanks. Dan

I have seen similar messy stamps that were real on either Chevelles or Elkys. You really need to clean the pad of all that paint and look at the broach marks.

I have seen lots of Chevelle pads this way as well. Where is Mike Crown???

This thread is taking me back a couple of years..the guy I got that 67 SS396 from bought it from the original owner, they both worked for Quest??? I think. The guy had 2 57 Chevys, a couple of Harley's and the Chevelle. Oh yeh , and his wife banging him on the head to sell, because the phone stock was in the tank. Anyway..this stamping is exactly like that Femont 67 with A.I.R. that I had. Wish I didn't sell it..

Assembly stamp is on the correct (left) side under the plug as it should be. The assembly stamp looks correct.

I think someone trying to counterfiet a stamping would have done it a lot neater than the assembly plants did..
Not all plants used a gang holder for the VIN derivitive.
