Welcome to the list Mike. As you can see from my signature that I own a "clone/fake/tribute car". I did not build it, I purchased it this way from the person that built it. One person told me that an SS car was a Chevelle with the SS options and in his opinion when someone puts the SS options on a Chevelle to him that makes it an SS. I do inform anyone that asks about the car that it is a clone. Some list members have got a good point that if no one knows any better then the car could be sold as a true SS. I for one am not looking to sell my car anytime in the near or distant future. Someone else also said on the list that it is your car do with it as you like, drive it and enjoy it.

ACES #5597 70 LS5 TRIBUTE http://chevellfan.com/index89.html -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Sanders Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2003 3:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-list] Help with ID please Greetings all, I am brand new to this game. Just bought a 70 Malibu that was partially restored about 4 years ago. It was also partially Cloned at that time. Not really sure how I feel about that but think I will go with SS upgrades minus the SS emblems. Made the title transfer on 11/11 of this year. Veterans day which I timed and felt appropriate for this car. Suspect it has a few stories to tell like most of them do. My question is about the body tag ID plate. Mine shows a time built code of 043440. Can anyone decipher that for me. I have been looking through all the books and on line sources I have found so far but no luck. Thanks in advance. The Chevelle is posted on the web at http://www.sofnet.com/k0az if anyone wants to look. Please don't laugh because I know I have a lot of work ahead of me. At this time all I know is the 355 is supposed to have some internal work along with the unidentified heads, headers, intake etc. The carb is a Holley replacement 570 and there is an Accell coil. Tranny is a TH350 that I believe has some work done on it. The rear is a 10 bolt non posi with what I think are 331s. While I am at it Happy New Year and thanks for being here.
