Odd 67 data plate
For about 30 years i bought many corvettes and loads of parts. So i am trying to sell everything now i finally realize at 71 and poor health i'll never get back to restoring working on/ anyhoo... I was going through boxes of parts and found two trim tags. So i went to my old little " ncrs pocket spec guide" to see what they were so the 67 = style 67 467, a- 3329 body, 986 paint- but wait it says 418 trim. Well according to the spec book 418 wasn't checked for the 986 silver paint??? I am sure it is an original tag as it's in a box i haven't opened for at least 25 years.

The key word here is "recommended". Chevrolet recommended possible color combinations, but did not restrict customers from ordering non-recommended combinations.
However, if you ordered something really weird (like red exterior with green interior), they dealership would generally require a significant (like 25%) down payment. That way if the customer backed out of the deal, the dealership had enough money to change the interior color to something more appropriate.
