Re: 1967 L-79 valve cover flaw date?
Hi Stephen,
The "Corvette Birthday Book" shows that the last two 1965 model year Corvettes were produced on Monday, August 2nd, 1966. Nothing else for the month of August. Then 1966 model year production began September 2nd, 1965, and shows that 1966 production ended on Friday, July 29, 1966. The book shows that August of 1966 had no production for either the end of 1966 model year or the beginning of 1967 model year (the book shows September 1st as first day of production for the 1967 model year).
I'm always interested in finding out where the books are a little off, and this sounds like one of those times. What is the Trim Tag date on your '66, or better yet, what is the actual production date, if you have obtained the NCRS Shipping Data Report?
