Such as a very late model year build? I was not dressed to do any numbers checking/digging but I did see the AVS air door when he pulled the air cleaner to prime it. Thank you for your time

The guy says he "knows" it is a 440 & it has at first glance that grungy "original/untouched" look as does the AVS & it has a yellow vac cap on the bowl vent for the hose to the charcoal canister that a 68 car would have. I will check numbers the next time I get over there but the guy says he really doesn't want to come off of it (I may have to put some hundreds in my pocket!). & it is a 2 dr. Thanks guys.

Oh OK '70 is the first year for the canister? Yeah I gotta get some numbers. Yes the vac cap has been added. It ran (barely).

After all those years, carb went bad and replaced it with a newer one, simple. In 68 years I have a few things replaced on me too. But an AVS doesn't fit where an AFB has been

at first glance the only thing that looked off was the AVS (with the bright yellow vac cap!) & if I am reading the responses right that a 67 car (even a late build) could (should?) not have an AVS (which AFAIK is a 68 to mid 71 emissions carb) then all that is left is for me to go back over there in my grubbies & do some digging & get some numbers. (eng number/letter on machined pad by dist/carb #) Thanks guys.

it did not have the good HP ex manifolds (so its a 350 horse I am assuming) if that helps.

I don't know about a 67, but according to the 68 fsm and also this rebuild kit instruction sheet say an AVS was used in 68 on 383's and 440's.
74 Challenger, bought it new. In 1978 I replaced the original 318 with a 446 and 727. Mild cam, Jardine headers, and Holley Sniper EFI. New engine! 511" RB, Edelbrock Performer RPM heads, Eagle rotating assy, Comp hyd roller cam, Doug's 2" headers.
