These are the kinds of questions you will have to answer if you buy the car and then someday go to sell.

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.

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.
