    models916, Ok. Getting there. These are things I want to know. I want to be ready for the most scrutinizing buyers. The tach is low on the column because the bracket is a little loose. I know the alternator and bracket are not original I thought it had a BW 4 speed but know...

    Where do I find THIS number?

    Well we all know that most cars have a story and mine is no different. I bought this car from a well respected collector in MA in kind of a hurry. My Dad had just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer so we decided to get him his dream car and do some shows and drives while he was still able...

    62I409, My car has all those characteristics. Here are the photos. Resistor is visible in motor shots and fuel line is visible in the underneath shots. Do you agree?

    So...... What I have here is a: 1962 Impala 2 door sport coupe in Ermine White with Blue interior. Currently has a 409/409 (legit factory built but not original to the car) with a 4 speed. Although the car is an original V8 car this motor does not match the car's VIN and I have no way of...

    Where do I find THIS number?

    What do you make of this? The first line of numbers does not match my VIN. The motor is clearly from a 62 409/409 with a 4 speed though, correct? My cars firewall plate says it came with a V8 but there's no way to tell for certain which v8 it came with?

    Where do I find THIS number?

    Ok. THAT's the info I was looking for. My car is NOT matching then. Motor is a true 62 409/409 and vehicle plate says car came with a V8. PO claims car is a true 409 but how can you tell that for sure?

    Where do I find THIS number?

    Thanks All. I'm on Cape Cod in MA. I'm Trying to decode my car as far as possible. The head has the QB code so I know it's a 62 409/409 4speed as it should be. I've decoded the tag on the firewall to see that it is a non SS (no buckets and no SS designation in the code), white with blue...

    Trying to find a match.....

    All, I'm looking for the number that tells me whether or not the engine I have is original for my car. My motor is correct year and build (1962 409/409) as I found on the casting code. My VIN matches the color codes, NON-SS, year, etc. but I don't know where to find the number that matches the...
