GPJ80:
Does the paperwork on top of the fuel tank tell me anything about engine and so on , But dont like my chances of it still being there , You would think someone would keep records of these cars hey , Oh well . I wonder if i can contact them in the USA and see if they can give me anything .

The Protect-O-Plate was furnished with all chevrolet cars (65-72)and was a metal plate imprinted at the assembly plant. The plate contained information on various standard or optional equipment. You may determine from the imprinted information on the plate the type of engine, transmission, rear axle, exterior color, the month the vehicle was produced, and other basic vehicle information.
Note: This plate was included with the warranty book and was not attached to the car.
