I just found a '68 Camaro. It's in Nevada County CA. Can anyone tell me the significance of the engine block number T1219MY 18L323077. It is a very intact car. I have pix on my cell phone but can't get them to attach.

try the 1st gen forum, although i'm sure somewhere knows about that vintage, your name brought back memories of a pretty good b-baller.........................

 

Not sure what numbers those are. A google search brings up nothing and they are not the right format for casting numbers. Maybe that is like a date code and internal batch code?

If those 6 VIN digits match up to your car's VIN, then you have yourself a matching numbers SS big block car.
