Sure, no problem.   

Yep, that's her! I really wish I had the money to buy it myself. Its not a perfect car but how often do you find one that hasn't been hacked on...

Anyway, here are the numbers.

Axle - PJ1012G  E
Casting 389460

The code matches the POP except for the "LJ".  I guess this is one instance of a factory typo?

Also if anyone would like me to document any details, please ask. I'd be more than happy to share.

Thank you -  I won't be able to get back to the car for a few days, but here's a shot of the POP. 

I found the same reference to GTO codes, but its a little odd that it would show up in '67.   Also, for reference, the cowl tag build date is 10C.

Hi All,
I'm helping a friend with his 67 RS-SS convertible. The car is still apparently all numbers matching, and the block/cowl tag/Protect-o-plate match.  The only thing I haven't been able to decode is the POP axle code "LJ1012G".   "LJ" is not on any list I can find. 

The car is an L48/4 speed/12 bolt, but I haven't been able to clean the axle tube yet to check the stamping.

Is this a typo? Should it be PJ perhaps?

Also, what's the proper nomenclature for a 67 Camaro with the 350SS option and RS package? If I had been at the dealership in '66, would the salesman have called this a 350SS, an SS-RS, etc? I always  got the sense that GM hadn't really figured how to brand these cars until later in 68 or 69.

Thanks!
