A friend sent me this pic and was wondering what all the letters and #'s meant on this tag thing.
Anyone know?http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/usergals/2014/09/full-13048-15592-barn_find.jpg

Just kidding with ya guys LOL. It really was a Barn Find. About 1995 or 96 a guy i know came by the office and asked if i could decode the tag thing on the firewall of a 67 camaro he had traded for.Of course the first thing i noticed was the 4L and told him what he had. While working for a man he noticed a wrecked car covered up in a shed. A base non SS 67 camaro hit in the front but the guy said the motor ran fine. He traded his labor and some cash and brought it home.
NOM but a correct casting # 67 small block. I never got to check out the heads or dist.they may be correct. Edelbrock intake w. holley and headers. He did body work,paint job, rally wheels and drives it. I can't give the VIN # but it lines up with the build date. I would say its really 1 of the 602.
Last year i heard about another 4L about 60 miles from me a guy bought in the early 70's. Red on red rally sport all original. A 4K man told me about it and said the guy never gets it out and only a few people has seen it.
Thanks,
Richard

Guess I was fooled - I thought you wanted to know what those bottom codes meant. So 4L = Z/28?

Wow, I don't know how I missed this post. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the only Emerald Turquoise (kk) 67 Z known to exist? Incredible find! Until recently this color and Sierra Fawn(ss) were the only colors unaccounted for on a 67 Z, then in the October issue of Super Chevy one of those showed up at their Texas show. It's always cool when new ones surface.

At the very bottom the letters are:
BO
DY
BY
FI
SH
ER.
Not sure, but I think it decodes to, &quot;BODY BY FISHER&quot;

The red rally sport 4L I spoke about back on 9/4/15 was recently sold to a guy I've known for many years.
It's a Canadian Doc. car with over 30 options. I'm going to check it out soon. Can't wait, i'll get back and tell everyone about it later.

Richard, take lots of pictures. It sounds like a pretty cool car. Do you have any other pictures of the emerald turquoise car? That seems like it would be a cool color combo on a Z.
