1967 trim code and help locating a 351 block

Looking at a 1967 with a tank sticker. Trim code is 8S70 TM. Not sure on this code please let me know. Also looking for a April 351 2 bolt block. Thanks Larry

Thats an unusual one. Why dont you give us more information, like all of the data plate information and approximate serial number?

I think that you will find that it says STD TM Black Vinyl like this one.

Date of production??

Wayne, you are probably right about the trim but the T probably is a mis-strike, as it does look like a 7, with the curve not a straight line. Interesting tank sticker. Date Recieved 12-09-66 Expected Date of production 1-27-66. Should the Production date not be 1-27-67 instead of 66?? Looks backward to me or is the 66 a mis-strike as they were known to do both on the paper work and the blocks?? Thanks Larry

Re: Date of production??

Yes, as with yours lots of mistakes were made on these. You know how it is at the first of the year. I am still writing 2003.

Tank stickers

Just what I thought too Wayne. My T is a 7 thanks to your sharp eye. Good to have those tanks stickers on those price climbing big block roadsters, as of the last three days of Barrett/Jackson, anyway!! Thanks for the help, Larry

Looks like they still didn't change the predicted year date yet.same as all I have seen(30).The order # versus vin# is what interests me,I'll have to check some earlier ones,Is difference the number of cars in production from last year(66)? My last figure was like 104 or 114
thanks for the look see!
