Re: '67 COPO 427 at Bloomington Tank Sticker

It's not unusual to see the production date as '66 instead of '67 if the date received is in 1966. Here's the tank sticker on the car I drove to the Judging Retreat in February. I've never seen both years incorrect like this one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]47044[/ATTACH]

I would also hate to have to explain this to a prospective buyer.

My tank sticker off my Jan. 3rd 1967 produced car is similar to Tim's. I believe it took them a while to correct the "66" date as I have personally seen more then one. Believe others have posted about it here also. My only question is if it happened any other years. I have only seen examples that crossed over from 66 into 67. Any one else know?

There are numerous examples of January 1967 production vehicles with '66 being typed on the tank sticker. This is not unusual. I have lots of 1967 Corvette tank sheets in my files with this characteristic. I don't have any with December '66 listed as December '67, though.

My tank sticker has the same date as your's, pencil # 470.

And no knowledge is even more dangerous.

Edit add: I have been told my above post could be misconstrued as a personal reference to Phil. That was NOT my intent, Perhaps the below will clarify.

If a little bit of knowledge is dangerous, how much more dangerous is NO knowledge?

This is analogous to the statement many of you have heard me make often:

The only thing more expensive than a good education is no education.
