Decode 67 Cowl Tag

[gregs67camaro]

I have acquired a 67 Camaro that I would like some help in figuring out what I have. Cowl tag is as follows;

                           01C
            ST           67 12637                   NOR                    78143              Body
            TR           765  Z                                                  A-A                 Paint
                           E2ELG                     3SLK
                           4N      3BY

Here's what I get out of it;
01   -    January of model year
C     -    3rd week
67   -    year model
12637   - 12 - ?  6 - custom interior   37  -  coupe
NOR   - Norwood, Ohio
78143  -  Fisher body No.
765 Z  -  Strato bucket seats
A-A  -  Tuxedo Black. Not sure about the other A
E2ELG  -  E - All tinted glass  2 - ?  E - Air Conditioning  L - Floor Shift   G - console
3SLK  -  S - interior decor group  L - Ralley sport package  K - Exterior decor group
4N  -  N - 396/325 hp black pan w/round radius rod
5BY  B - Large rear bumper guards   Y - Belts all deluxe

I know the engine is not origional, which is know a 454 w/396 heads.
The transmission nos. are PT301B (Munice) 392566
The 2 nos. on the rear end are (bottom front flange) 8894860NF, and on the passenger side tube, QK 0120G
The car also has a tilt steering colum and black vinyl top.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Decode for body number: 078143
 
01C = Built the Third week of January.
67-12637 = Custom Interior Coupe.
NOR = Built in Norwood Ohio.
765 = Custom Black Bucket Seats.
Z = (A50) Strato Bucket Seats (without headrests).
A-A = Car Color is Tuxedo Black

Options:
1E = (A01) Tinted All Glass
2E = (C60) Air Conditioner
2L = (M20) 4-speed floor shifter
2G = (D55) Console front compartment
3S = (Z23) Interior Decor group

3K = (Z21) Deluxe exterior trim
4N = (L35) SS 396

Trans doesnt appear to be orignal

QX0120G

QX = 2.73 Posi with metallic brakes
0120 = Jan 20th build
G = Detroit Gear and Axle

Rear looks to be original. According to the tag there shouldnt be a vinyl top. A-A is black painted top and bottom.

The rear end code of QK would be for 3:31 gears.  Can you post a picture of the cowl tag?

I will try and get a picture of the tag and post it.

I'd like to see a picture of the tag.

The tag says AC and BB - didn't happen in 67, so I'd say it's not real. 
Always question any black car....

I went to look at this car yesterday.  Here is a picture of the tag.

[RAfbody]

The car has the plate spot welded to the floor with the studs through the floor and the front bracket for the radius rod is bolted there with the bolt in the frame as well.  There is also at least one of the speedometer clips in the trasmission tunnel for holding the speedometer cable.  I just want to add that it was a pleasure meeting Greg and his wife.  I enjoyed visiting with him and helping work on his car a little bit. 

[KurtS]

With that axle (assuming it's original), it's possible the car originally was an SS350.
But the tag is a repro.

[RAfbody]

That's what I told Greg.  In my opinion the car started life as an RS/SS 350, 4 speed with a/c.  Still a nice car but the tag calls it into question.

Also, note that L and K would NOT have appeared together after the number 3 because when L was ordered (Ralley Sport) the K (z21 exterior trim package) was already included.  Therefore, along with AC and BB, repop trim tag.
