Decoding/Numbers / Re: New member trying to find out what I have- Barn Find
« on: February 23, 2018, 09:03:52 PM »
Here is a picture of the bulk head behind the rear seat on the gold car. It looks to me to have an X 2 written on it under the glue. Would that further verify it was a 396 SS. It does have two fuel lines under the car. The guy I bought the car from purchased it in 1971 which is when the title was put in his name. I will attach pictures of the trans partial vin and the block vin. Do these look legit. The gold car was in a wreck in 1979 which messed up the front sheet metal and hasn't been driven since then.
Thanks for all the help. I am wanting to turn the gold one and I just don't want to misrepresent any thing when I sell it. If I have decoded everything correctly It looks like the engine was built in Tonowanda in November 20th 396/352 HP. The Casting code is 3955272. The trans looks to be built in Nov 27th. The Cowl tag suggest that the car was assembled in the 4th week on November. Do these dates look like they could line up for a 4th week assembly?
