I know where there is an orig. one owner  SS 350 that has fins. I Think it an oct build with a white Trim tag.

From the information compiled so far, it looks like the ornaments were changed to the "stack" design for the L48's shortly after the drawing in the AIM was changed on 11-6-67.................RatPack...................

Thanks! I added it.

There's a large disconnect between what happened in the plant and when AIM drawings were done. But here is does seem the timing was about the same.
Oct 350 cars have the fins, Nov cars have the stacks. It will take more data to confirm and improve the resolution (i.e. what week).....
