According to Rowley Corvette, the JE code was for 1967, not 1966). Matching date code heads to Block within 4 weeks. Engine came out of a running car in 2005 and has been stored in my garage covered up ever since. Mechanic said it only needs a valve job and carb rebuilt to get her running again, but of course you can rebuilt if you prefer. I'm tole it has never been rebuilt.

I'm only sharing the VIN to help confirm it is a very, very, very early production 1967 427 / 435. It may be the first 427 / 435 built since it appears to be one of the first 100 cars built for 1967... I'm not sure. On Sep-29-13 at 07:49:42 PDT, seller added the following information: I've been contacted that the VIN is 11,18X and not one of the first 100 cars built in 1967. Thank you for your help!
