I put a posting on a few days ago and now have the pictures to help the Experts at CRG help me understand if I do own a real 1967 RS/SS.
Pic. # 3 is the numbers stamped on th front body under the cowl panel. Pic # 5 is the VIN, Pic. #6 is the stamp on the top of the Transmission, Pic # 7 is the side of the transmission ( Is it a M-20 or M-21??). Pic # 8is the tag bolted to the transmission ( what does it mean?) Pic. # 10 is the front pad of the motor, and Pic. # 12 is the rear of the motor, The cast date on the motor is H186 as shown in Pic. 13. Picture 15 is the axle tube Is it a Posi? It is a 12 bolt and has center cast numbers of H296 and 3894860. What is the gear ratio? Is this a rare car or fairly common?? Thank you for all of your help!

All of the pictures didn't come through. Got #'s 13 & 15 only. H186 ='s August 18, 1966 and the axle is a 3.31:1 posi dated September 13th manufactured at Detroit Gear & Axle. Try again on the other pics or just give the data.

Cool! Your block was cast on my 8th birthday. Can I have it as a late birthday present? Just kidding. Very early build. I couldn't read the letter code of the TT, but this must be 1st week of September. I have an RS built at the same plant that is a 10C and the early cars have several unique features or non features that were later changed. I like that your transmission still has the metal part number tag.
