Engine Information:
The block is the factory original block with casting number 3902406 which is correct for mid year 1967 Chevelle 396s. The deck still retains its original stamping which reads T0427ED 7B181937. This decodes to Tonawanda Engine Plant (T) assembled April 27th (0427) with 325hp (ED) 7 (1967 Model Year) B (Baltimore Plant) 181937 (Production Number). The heads have casting numbers of 3908802 and dates of C21 7 and C29 7. The dates decode to March 21st and March 29th 1967. The intake has a casting number of 3883948 with a casting date code of A 9 7 which decodes to January 9th, 1967. All of this is correct for a 1967 Chevelle. The manifolds are supposed to be original, but I cant find pictures of the dates on them.
Transmission Information:
The transmission is the original M20 Muncie 4 Speed. Baltimore built cars, unlike Atlanta built cars, had the CONVIN stamped on the top of the transmission. This "CONVIN" is a way to identify the drivetrain to the original car it came out of. Stamped on top of this transmission is 7B181937. This is the same CONVIN found on the engine deck stamp. This of course shows 1967, Baltimore Plant, 181937 (production number). The stamped code on the side of the transmission is P7D04 which decodes to Muncie year model 1967 April 4th. This lines up with the car perfectly and is 100% original to the car.
Differential Information:
CI 0407B E
This decodes to 3.73 ratio (CI) Installed April 7th (0407) from the Buffalo, NY plant (B) with an Eaton Positive Traction unit (E).
Brief History and Background Information:
This Chevelle has spent most of its life in a heated garage. All of the body panels are said to be original. I have verified the floors, trunk, quarters, hood, and fenders to be original. I never took the door panels off to verify the doors, but they are for sure GM and correct.

Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept
Sat, Nov 22 2014"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
