Here is one of the original window stickers I have for my 69's. This particular one is for my 69 Camaro Convertible. I also included the original salesman's business card. He is related to the original owner of my car. Cool thing is, my convertible was originally sold right here in Spokane, and the dealership is still in business today.

1967 Heads would have no temp sending unit in them, later heads (aluminum and steel) would have temp senders in them. Chances are slim it came with 1967 heads with no temp sender since there was no provision for this in the intake.
There would be no way to gauge the temp of the engine. Heads from 1967 to 1968 are one of the things that can't carry over as the part was different.

Here's what he sent me with regards to the head and trans numbers:

[ QUOTE ]
Both date codes on the heads are in January of 1967. I don't have the date code on the Trans, but I have learned, from an Ebayer, that the trans is from a '72 model. The trans stamp is: P2T06B. Thanks - Tim.

Looks like he's being up front with everyone. He's even revised the auction with this info. Although he does say the Window Sticker is original. I don't have enough experience on these to say, but if it IS original, then the only thing that I can say is, what's a Window Sticker worth to you... Cause that's basically what you're buying!

I don't like the letter/number Font on his window sticker at all.
It doesn't come close to a match of a 1968 w/s I have here.
I agree,as others have already stated,it does not look authentic.

There is no question about the window sticker, it is a reproduction, probably from AAA. I have lots of factory paperwork in my files that has been collected over the years, I have the original 1969 window sticker from my '69 Indy Pace car and 1967 big block Corvette. The fonts are completely different as the ID number of the car (468104). All GM "O" are squared off. The fonts are that of the AAA reproduction window stickers. Trouble is that everyone is getting used to seeing these and they think they are ligitimate. This is not an original window sticker and serves no documentation value. I will not speak about the car as I have not seen it. The value of the window sticker is $20 as that is what AAA charges.

Mr T, are you sure thats an original sticker for your 69? Unless CA window stickers are alot different than Norwood ones, it looks like it's hand-typed. Any originals I have seen have the end portion of the VIN ink-stamped.
