The SS 350 on the grille emblem and gas cap were on early cars, and phased out when the big blocks were introduced.  Depending which steering wheel was ordered, you may or may not have the center steering wheel emblem. 

Gas cap and grill emblem just became SS on all cars once the SS 396 started Being produced.

If my memory is right, early SS 350 cars did not get the flag fender emblem behind the front wheel.

 And to add, I'm pretty sure the later 67 SS grill emblem was flat on the bottom, not humped to follow the 'S' like the inaccurate repo's show.

Its a shame you can't rely on many of the factory photos from '67. Many are pre-production and not like they actually built. And there were so many combinations of options it is hard to figure out what should be. This picture is of my car when it was 2 or 3 months old, gotten from the original owner. I know the car since then.
