Welcome j3rry..

Looks like you have quite a project on your hands. Can't wait to see your progress.

ya its a project but idk what to really do with it jus cuz of vin tags n everything . n plus idk if 66 or 67 . i have a title says 66 ss . but dont look like no ss to me specially with 66 front end and looks to be 67 tails.

That's extremely odd. Your title has a 136 VIN on it and says SS? 136 is a standard sport coupe while the 138 is the SS model. They did make the 136 SS version in Canada, but your tag is not a canadian tag. Do the tag rivets look original or tampered with?

I'm completely lost on the rear. It looks like 67 rear corner on a 66 car to me as well.

Your rivets on the VIN tag look to be the wrong type to me, but I'm no expert.

ya i know what ya mean ... the bottom rivets look org but top 2 look broken off . but idk . i got off phone with guy got car off of n he said he got it off org owner . n said sometime another he dont know story but rear panel has been changed n 67 tail lights put n it idk is that possible ? im 34 years old n dont know whole lot bout old cars but tryin learn . and rear cb antenna is kinda crazy . but IF the car was a ss . wouldnt it be a 4 speed car other then a 3 ?

or is it possible chevelle made a ss package with out putting big block 4 speed in car .

Rattler · #17 03-10-2011, 06:57 AM

Yes that's possible, but the #136 SS cars are Canadian and have the Canadian VIN tag. Maybe yours was removed and replaced with the current American VIN tag.

damn canada why they gotta mess up things haha .
