Default 70 Camaro

I am wondering if someone can tell me if this is a L-78 car from the tag info. The reads as follows
TO427CKO motor
124870N547660 Vin.
ST7012487NOR297817 body
TR723 43 43
05D car has been stored in a barn since 73 and has 12,000 miles
on the odometer. The only thing odd is that it is in gray primer but it is complete and in good shape.
thanks rock

Charlie I have not dealt with Camaros much so I really don't know the finer points of what is right and what is not. I have been a "Shoebox" man all my life so I thought that the 57 FI car that is also in this barn was the big find but maybe I need to check more into the Camaro. If I can figure out how to post pics here I will put some pics of the barn up.
thanks rock

LOL I don't think you can get either of these cars from my son. He found them 15 yrs. ago and we have been waiting our time. However there are over 20 other cars involved plus a large barn full of parts. Check out the blown small block in the background of this pic.

Shouldn't the trim tag say L-78 if it was indeed a 375 Hp car?? I believe the Norwood cars were coded this way.

Where in Texas are you? Maybe I could come by and inspect the car for you..

Yes it does have L78 on the tag. It is right after the 05D
There is a space and then L78. It was in my original post but somehow I deleted it when I was trying to get a picture to come up.
