A real 67 RS SS Camaro? Trim tag is confusing to me with the 4P on the cowl ta

[sappy787]

Hi, I am looking to buy a 1967 camaro RS/SS and wanted to get some help / The Norwood trim tag has a 4p on the bottom but I am confused on is it a SS350 350 or am i reading it could be a 327 with a 4 speed from Norwood. Any help decoding all the tag would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. I just want o make sure I am buying a real SS/RS car. Also is it really a manual transmission with no center console. Thanks in advance for any help..

SS should have a 12 bolt. I’m on vacation, away from my books. Someone will chime in with the the option codes. Console was optional, so yes you could have a 4speed without a console.

According to trim tag this car was originally a three on the tree or powerglide on the column.
SS 350.
IF it was a 327 it would have a “L” in group 2 in order to have a “p” in group 4

I was thinking the body tag wasn't legit and seems confusing to me ?

Thanks for the mssages

The group 4P tells fisher body that the body being built get a radius rod plate for traction on higher performance cars...the 327 (non SS cars) cars only counted if they where 4 barrel higher horsepower 327’s with 4 speed transmissions.
All of the SS cars got the radius rods regardless if it was a 3 speed car or automatic.
Since your car has no designation in group 2 for a 4 speed..it had to be a SS to get Radius rod (4P on trim tag)

The tag is clear - it was not a 4 speed originally. It was column shifted with a powerglide or a 3-speed manual.
RS and SS350
What it is now is a different discussion...

It seems that some/most 2M powerglide automatics did not get the radius rod.

This Tech bulletin only references SS with 4 speeds, but my readings here point to were some cases where some automatics had them; possibly added to owner cars that brought them in for service and the dealer installed it on the automatic car.

My 67 SS/RS convertible with powerglide does not have a radius rod.
