Newbieish question about cast date codes on components
« on: August 27, 2020, 08:37:08 PM »
If you have a car that was manufactured in late 1967 and the car is a 1968,  would the car have components (c6 trans,  engine heads, intake etc) that all have a cast date codes of 67?

Or the "My car came that way when I bought it" or the "It's been on there for the last 30 years!!"  option   ::)
