67 ss clone w/ built 427

Hmmm. depends on if it came that way.  Can you post a picture of the trim tag.  On the fire wall behind the power brake booster.  If you had the 'broadcast sheet' or build sheet it would be helpfull.

I just looked at your photobucket pics, nice cars.  I dig the paint on the one car and the shaker just makes that engine bay, time to redo that bay.
I dont think the car came with that 427, if it di clearely it was modified.  You still should find the trim tag and see what the car came with.  What are the specs on the mil anyway?

Nice car. It will take a lot of work to return it to original condition. It is a 1968 model, not a 1967. That 427 is not a big block.
 
Take care,

Yeah its a 68 not 67, and its a small block, but it could still be 427CID.
Where is the car at now?
If you want to sell the seats,tack, and shifter let me know . I might be intrested in them if you dont want to much for them
Nice car though

I dont actually have the car yet, its on its way from arizona... .it will be here middle of next week... I do know its a 67 because i already have the title..I was told that the rear panel is a 68 not for sure on that ...when i get it here ill post the tag.. i was just trying to find out if i got a good buy, i only piad 11,000.00 for it
the seats are a going for sure and probably the shifter...but the tranny is a reverse valve job so im gonna have the tranny for sale as well...fuel cell nos bottle are going would be willing to trade for a complete set of seats anyone interested let me know
thanks

I need to recheck... but I thought only the 67 model had the ignition switch in the dash, I could be mistaken.

The title reads as follows...124377N....any ideas of price
Thanks

I am going to still say it started life as a 67.
You paid a really good price at 11k.  Depending on what you do to it and how it all turns out you might get 19 - 20 for it.

If it started out as a 67 then a lot of parts were exchanged for 68 parts. For instance the front grill with its elongated signal lamps are 68. The 67 had round lamps. The marker lamp on the fenders in front of the wheel opening were only installed on the 68. This car does not have the vent window on the door. Only the 67 had that. Instead the 68 had astro ventilation which can be seen on the photos of the dash. Only 67s with air-conditioning had that. The rear tail lamps have a raised bar between the read tail light and the white reverse lamp. Only 68 had that. 67 was flat straight across.

car is def a 68.  I would bet that the vin is stolen. 

oh lord a can of worms is opened

Did you see this car in person before you bought it? If so did you check the VIN# with the title? You have any more pics of the car? If so look and see if the VIN# tag is in the left top side of the dash, if so then it is a 68. If the VIN# tag is on the drivers door hinge piller then it will be a 67. 67 is the only year that the VIN is on the hinge piller

Let me know when you get it and how much you want for the different parts

Im located in Michigan near flint area.... what i do need is complete set of seats in good condition, i can recover them...i also am gonna need a gas tank for it as well...if some one can help me out id be willing to trade.....
I bought it from a woman who got it in her divorce and she didnt know much about it, all she could tell me is it was extremely fast and she was afraid to drive it...I talked to the guys at the shipping yard where she dropped it off and they told me it was a steal at that price so i dont think i went wrong....it is supposed to be in michigan on the 10th when i get it ill post all the info i can about it
Thanks all

Yup, You are right.  I looked it up last night.  I'll be darned.  Its the 69 that doesnt have it.  SO I retract. 
Either way, its a nice car.
Hope you enjoy it and get some more pictures of it.

  5 day's b4 the car is supposed to get to titen interesting to see if it even show's up.Man I feel for him. However it does seem nobody here is getting it except you and me

the vin number does say 67 but that car is a 68  right then and there is a red flag. People dont do research on these car that they are buying

Thats why I asked if he seen it in person before he bought it and checked the VIN# with the title.
It looks like it was a race car so its poss. that some one pieced the car together from other cars. It could be that just the shell is a 67 with the VIN# and title, with 68 front end, doors, and tail panel put on it. The only way to know for sure is when and if he gets it is to look at the vin# and where it is located

I just looked at the pics again a little closer, and I dont see the side marker lights that should be there in the rear if it was a 68 like what you see on the front fender. So it just might be like I said , a 67 shell with 68 stuff put on it.
Good luck with the car
