68 Cowl Tag
« on: August 11, 2021, 11:38:33 PM »
Being that I'm not too familiar with 68 Cowl Tags, wanted to get some opinions on this one. It's from what I believe is a BB, RS/SS car that a resto has been started on. The VIN correlates to the build date on the tag and if the heater box is original as I suspect, the connection is in the middle as it should be for a BB car. Thoughts, opinions? Thanks.

Not much to tell. The car was assembled the 3rd week of March, 1968 and was painted Corvette Bronze with black deluxe interior.

The big block heater box is being reproduced so that's no conclusive proof. Only docs and/or the original drive train would be proof.
