The tag is a reproduction, too early for L78. Looks like current owner got stuck with a fake car.

What is the earliest build date for a 4K Camaro, a real one.
Thanks

Grumpy Jenkins had the 1st l78 but it was a 4 p on the cowl tag. The 2nd was the pace car that paced the Indy race. I believe 4k came on the cowl tag 1st week of April. Grumpy's car was 2nd week of March?

Not quite the # 92 track pace car built 3C, was the first camaro built with an L78. Yes it was coded 4P and is documented with Protectoplate identifying the original production installed drivetrain. Chevy engineering later changed it from a L78 4spd to a L35/34 automatic.

Oh contrare, monfrare. Grumpy' car was built before the pacer. I believe charley, who owned the pacer, has agreed to this. I think this was a long winded conversation years ago. I think grumpy' was 3b.
