I was digging through some papers I got with the car and I have found a blue piece op paper that says it's a application for transfer of warranty and it has the engine# TO217JH rearend#BV02227G trans#P9B03
Is that cool or what!

It says date of application is 1 7 70
date acquired 3 5 69
original date vehicle placed in service 3 5 69
thanks for the help and the interest in my car,it's not everyday somebody finds a car that has been around here for 41 years and nobody knew what it was,I love it!

Cool the original In Service Date of the car was 3-5-69 but if the Warranty Transfer application is dated 1-7-70 and engine TO217JH, rear BV02227G and trans P9B03 #'s noted on it, unless they made a mistake or something sideways was happening at the dealer level it looks like the components were still w/ the car at that time?.

If the parts were indeed there and the transfer date when the vehicle was purchased by the guy you got it from, is he perhaps forgetting the engine/trans going astray while he owned it or were they maybe swapped without his knowledge?.

If no, is it possible he purchased the car some time after the Warranty Transfer date and the swaps happened w/ a different owner before he got it???

Cool car whatever happened and any paperwork/components that back up it being an original L78 car the better!.

Maybe, either that or the dealer got the car as a trade in or repo and just copied the info off the protecto plate? Were dealers really checking the engine, trans, and rearend stamps when the cars came in used? I imagine most guys who wrote up the paperwork did not know where the engine stamping was, let alone the trans or rearend stampings.

Very cool find!

One way to start looking for people is beenverified.com. Put in the name &amp; the known state. Go down the list &amp; see if you can find any possibilities of the correct age. Then you can use the cities &amp; states listed to find a last known address thru qwestdex. It's a little drawn out but it can work...Joe

Thanks for the intrest in my car!I have had many 69 camaro's in the past and this is by far the coolest one in my opinion,I love it and am going to try my best to restore it back like it came out.
I have talked to some of my friends that remembered the car back in the day when he got it and thay have all told me that the car was stolen before he got it.I am trying to dig up the whole story,I think i may have found the guy who bought it new and i have sent him a letter asking him to call me or send me his number,all i can do is hope he does.
Thanks
