Default vin #'s 1 9 4 3 7 8 S 4 2 6 6 7 5 ....B/M vette?

Based on these vin #'s wondering if it joggs anyones memory, or just strikes any suggestions??
Could this possibly be a original B/M phs 3 gt vette. My father owns the car and he spoke with Joel Rosen a few days ago and he told my father he did make a few 68' however he would not give any more info without being paid to to doc. search.........so what do you all think. My father is looking for the build sheet.......any suggestions on were to find one on the car.....?
Also does anyone know if the zone and dealer number for baldwin chevrolet is
zone # 27
dealer # 019

Starting w/ '67 'Vettes, the top of the gas tank is the location where the build sheet should have been placed at assy. . Sometimes you can peek around a fuel filler boot and see if it's there before dropping the tanks...not sure how well that would work w/ the Dodge style flip filler on your car? . You may be able to remove the filler top assy and look then...or just do it, drop the tank and what's left of it is either there or it's not? .

On the flip caps themselves, I think I've read at least one Motion car was known built w/ a style Dodge filler, not the Enot's/Aston Martin style...other side of the coin though, the Dodge one's would've been the easiest to obtain back in the day for private built cars too?. .

Good luck w/ whatever turns up...if anything looks truly positive, pay the man and spin the wheel!? .
