    1967 frontend shocks

    I saw two "origial" shocks one dated 286-66 and the other dated 192-67, they both have part # 3186906. On the 66 shock it has the part # space date on the 67 shock it has the part # plus the word bottom than the date. Are they both 67 shocks, would like to know why, or if they are origial.

    They sound to me like original shocks. Both could have been used on a 1967 model year Corvette, although I doubt they were originally used on the same car. The one dated 192-67 would have had to have been used on a very late 1967. It's also possible, of course, it was used on an early 1968 since the same shock part number was used.

    Could the shocks have been SERVICE shocks manufactured during the 1967 PRODUCTION period? Yes, that's possible, too. However, there's no way to know exactly what their origin was and it does not really matter, anyway. The stamping "bottom" on one of the shocks has no particular significance to the issue.
