By blows the doors off I mean she's loaded up with dealer racing options, my69 ss was easy resto. 396, 4spd , 12 bolt just neede freshing up, this 67 is a monster, lokks like a sleeper z on the outside.

whats the full VIN and Cowl tag info? Does the partial VIns under the cowl and near the heater blower motor match the VIN plate?

[berger]

rs/ss 427 orig disc brakes, swaybar, heaterbox, copper tube linelock,BB springs and shocks, lakewood traction bars on some monster rear axle, pulled cover ,gears are destroyed, no bolts on rear axle (what is it),4 spd, got original registration- guess I'm gonna have to try and backtrack and find this motor- they usually don't stray far from where they are ripped out. Garaged entire life,all steel,chrome and glass still there, only bondo was used to fill in rs reverse light holes- had to climb under the car to find the holes, looked like it came from the factory w/ deleted backup lights- best bondo job [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] I ever saw (or almost didn't see, thank god for magnets.

How about a picture of your 67 in question. Do you have a digital camera so you can take so pics of the cowl tag, vin# plate, maybe some shots of the disk brake setup, heater box, engine compartment, some of the interior racing options? Any pics would help. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

no match , I just left car so I'm goin' late nite memory right now vin on door 123377n242371, cowl and box 7n224711 [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

[Mr. T]

By your description and the options it has, it sounds like your car is a factory built 67 Camaro SS/RS 396, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be a converted 427 Baldwin Motion or Yenko Camaro. To bad you could find out where it was originally sold.

[berger]

sure I'll take pics, but its 2am here and I'm headin' to bed soon, I'll try and snap a few off tomorrow, pics that is. its 229711 on cowl & box not224711 its late and a lot of ozs. later. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

[Mr. T]

Flat hood or SS louvered hood?

[berger]

I think that's where Matt Murphy was on to something last nite he wanted me to call him right away toget info and look for other stuff that would distinguish it but I had to clean all the dust of it first so as not to waste anyone's time, [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
