vin vs engine assembly date
« on: August 21, 2015, 11:31:08 PM »
My 68 Camaro z/28 vin is 18n413105, build date 04A. What would the engine assembly date be +/-?

Pete, that VIN is not correct for a '68 Camaro.  If it's a Z/28, it's probably 124378N413105.

The engine build date should be sometime in February to the beginning of the first week in
April with a 04A car assembly date and a xxxxxxN41xxxx VIN

Pete, isn't your engine assembly date March 29th?  That's perfect for a 04A Norwood build.
