I was wondering if there was any way to find out info on this dealer & possibly the cars paperwork or I just need to Pay for an NCRS report. I have a pic with the Bill Allen emblem on the back but I cant seem to get it to load.

Not sure which car you bought?
If it's believed or was sold as numbers matching meaning original drivetrain, I hope you verified that before buying but no, the VIN tells you nothing of the original engine that would have come in the car. The engine deck stamp will tell you what the Hp rating is. Again if the original engine is in fact in the car now. If it's not, only factory docs will tell you whether it was the base 396/325hp or the optional 396/360hp. Doubt it's the 396/375hp of which only 3099 were released. The suffix code on the deck stamp will tell you whether it's 325 or 360. ED EDH EF etc. but you can't rely on that as FACT. Lots of restamps out there and knowing what the deck stamp for your car's assembly plant at the time your car was assembled ( engine ) plays into this as well. Each plant did things differently. Too many people just LOOK to see if the deck stamp MATCHES the VIN TAG. Plus the vin will be stamped on the transmission too if it was supposed to be original drivetrain. Enjoy your car no matter what and post some pics |

The car has AC so it can’t be an L78. It was either an L35 or L34.

if you need a 360hp engine, I pulled one out of a Chevelle I parted out back in the early 80's.

Bill Allen was in K.C. Missouri. He later supplied Dick Harrell with copos and other cars to undergo the D.H. Modifications and sold through D.H. I have a few emblems. Not sure which one you need. Sounds like a great car. I have several Bbc pieces for 66-7s just an fyi should you be looking?
