I am new to this forum
« on: September 05, 2009, 09:10:16 PM »
If this information is posted in the wrong place would a moderator please move it to its proper topic area.  Thanks

I recently purchased a 1969 Camaro VIN 124379L509180
                                                  Cowl tag
ST 69   12437     LOS 142907  BD

TR 712              52B  PNT

11B                    K230

This is what I have for info, please correct me me if I am wrong.

Body Color Garnet w/blk vynl top
Blk interior
RS/SS 396 w 4spd

The engine in it is NOM.  I did find a block with 4 bolt J-1-8 for numbers.  What other info do I need from this block to make sure it is correct for my car?

Any help with my new car would be greatly appreciated.

Jody, awesome looking car. Sadly the trim tag info. and VIN will NOT tell you what engine it came from the factory with. All the SS labels, the 396 engine, the black tail panel, all could be added to enhance value or speed. Check the rear frame rail behind the drivers side rear wheel at about 1 o'clock and see if there is a apox. 3x5 inch steel plate welded to the frame with 2 holes in it, for hanging dual exhaust. If its there, the car did come with factory dual exhaust. If its not there, its not a SS396.
 Also count your hood spring coils. How many fuel lines coming up to the fuel pump?
 Get ALL numbers off the block and post them in here,that will also help the folks to help you figure out what you have. :)
