That's obvious, now the numbers on rear pan rail...N,next digit is either an M with the first leg missing or a V with an extra leg to the right. In sum N, weird letter, 42622390016. Anyone know how to decode????? thanx, Gary

Look for a VIN# on the upper bell housing flange in the rough cast area of the center/passenger side of the very rear of the block. 4541286-68HemiVINstamp.jpg (393 downloads)

With a Sept 1968 assembly date would that be a 1969 model year application?
