build #
Correct me if I am wrong, but each car has a number 1-500 HAND written on the tank sticker. This # also appears on the doors(seen with the door panel removed) and also on the passengers side foot well outside below the heater core box. The # also is written on the rear of the body in front of the gas tank. Sometimes these #'s are covered with paint or grease. My 66 does not have a tank sticker as they started in 67. The doors have the #350E it has power windows. Am I correct in this understanding, as I also have # 350 in the places indicated above. Thanks

That's the "Body Shop Job Number", which is unrelated to any other numbers on the car. :thumbs:

So it does NOT appear on the tank sticker of a 67?

production number related to vin
there is a relationship of the handwritten production number on the tank sticker to the vin.
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...b48c9a66fb.jpg usually, the production number will be less than by a few digits or equal to the last three digits of the vin or the last three digits of the vin less 500 (the production increment). https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...b1f82da228.jpg in my case, the last three digit of my vin are 898. 898 less 500 is 398. the production number 395 you see written on the tank sticker in my case is three less than the 398 (898 less 500). the production number on my car is also visible on the passenger side floor below the firewall and behind the gas tank. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...bda9005c0e.jpg hope that was not too confusing. |
Ending on my VIN:21135, hand written number on Tank (build) sheet:137.

tank sticker
thanks for the help so far and I will check the sticker to see how the numbers stack up. Any opinions on what value it would add having a tank sticker as the only documentation to one that has no documentation on a 67 big block

The Ident Number matches only the Ident Number on the original paperwork - it's completely unrelated to the VIN or any other number; the NCRS Document Validation Service (temporarily unavailable) can confirm for you whether your tank sticker is authentic or not - nobody else can. :thumbs:

John, How about CCAS, Al Grenning? Doesn't he do some type of documentation?

Have you guys ever seen a car where the tank sticker is still in place, and during restoration, instead of removing the sticker, they replaced the whole tank with a repro tank, so that the sticker could stay affixed to the original tank? I have run across a car like this. I thought that was pretty neat.
