1967 - Orphans / Re: I have 7N146826 VI201MS shortblock

I don't have the casting date written down anywhere and will be a few days before I can get to it. I think the stamp indicates a build date of Dec 01 1967.

I purchased the shortblock at the Portland swap meet in 1994 or 1995. If you need this let me know we can work something out.

I think the wheels just have a DF stamp on them. I have not done any research on this stuff for about 15 years, and it seems you have compiled much more info on this site than I had been able to find. Previously I have relied on self purported experts and the Camaro White Book and Super Sport Red Book. There have been some people interested in purchasing this car and one question that keeps coming up is 'what is the earliest existing RS/SS?'. I have told them it is probably impossible to tell, and I thought the Red or White book claimed that there were no factory plans to combine packages. This only occured after the cars hit the showroom floor and people started ordering them. Is this correct as far as you know? Thanks, Gus

I had some notes mixed up with another car. Here is the cowl tag info. Top line: 10B               G548, Next line ST 67-12437  LOS    4271 BODY, Next line TR 760Z           Y-2 PAINT, next line  W  2LG   3SL, next line   4P    5Y . This car doesn't look like it has ever been taken apart or modified in any way, has date coded ralley wheels but has manual drum brakes on the front. I thought it should have disc brakes.

I will get a pic soon, my camera is getting repaired now. Just going off some old notes that I had. I purchased the car in Tracy California in 1993 with all the factory equipment except engine and exhaust. The car had not been licsensed since 1983 and still has the original black plates. I found a 67 MS code engine at the Portland swap meet, I am thinking I should post the engine in your orphans section before I use it. Is that a good idea?

New here and tried to look up where I should ask about your VIN database. I have a 1967 RS/SS VIN# 124377L106786, built 3rd week Aug 1966. Wondering where it falls in oldest survivor. If you don't deal with this sort of questions, sorry for wasting your time. Gus
