67 vette protecto plate help
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a buddy looking at this car tomorrow. It is a 1967 corvette big block ac coupe. Red with white stinger hood, white/black interior. The plate has the stamps HC and HH where I thought the paint and trim codes might have been. Also no H stamp for Holley on the other side. Any ideas about the HC and HH?
Thanks!

This is very interesting. I have the tank sticker for 20410 and it is an export car.
I'm posting the Protect-O-Plate for my car that is very close to 20410 for comparison (66 cars later). HC and HH should be where the interior/exterior colors are. Nothing on the tank sticker shows HC or HH either.

I have both POP's reversed and attached. The colors are Rally Red with black/white interior.

You may also notice that both 427/390 horse motors are built the same day. I'd love the stamp on 20410 for comparison. I'm glad to attach my pad. It is CCAS confirmed.

There are some unique characteristics with 427 engines built on 5-25-67 that I can share later.

Tim, wow you can't provide better information than you have. Way to help a fellow member :biggthumpup:

Steve, we've been communicating by Private Message. I hope it all works out.

I’m no expert, but isn’t there supposed to be an S between the 7 and 1?

^ that might be the unique characteristic...

That address does not seem to exist on google earth. But it is a commercial area now, so things may have changed.

I tried searching the property records for Montgomery County to see who owned that property on the date of the car, but there is a $25 fee to do a search. If I were an interested buyer, I would pay the $25 to see if the property owner info from 1967 matches the protecto-plate info.

If you're referring to an S on the engine VIN stamp, no there is not.

The property search sounds like a great idea! I am going to try that. Thanks everyone! Any clues on the HC and HH?
