Posting the numbers on the bell helps find others searching.Just came across this block today, would love to reconnect it back to its rightful car but unsure where it goes. Any help would be appreciated.

Chargers weren’t built at the St Louis plant until March of 68 so this was out of a Coronet R/T or GTX.11 14 67 build date. HP engine. G assembly line = St. Louis, MO. What all did they build there that would leave with a 440 in '68. Chargers and Cornet R/T's?
Put the number in the topic bar. It will help is someone searches for it.The car would have come from around the St. Louis metro area, if anyone knows of one let me know. I’m not looking to flip it, I’d rather help it find home.. It’s a challenge / treasure hunt kinda thing.
Matching up 68 blocks to cars is harder than 69 and later but I can get this close....Just came across this block today, would love to reconnect it back to its rightful car but unsure where it goes. Any help would be appreciated.

Should've mentioned the block in my car came from a 68 GTX it was cast 10-10-66. Don't know assembly date off hand.Matching up 68 blocks to cars is harder than 69 and later but I can get this close....

If memory serves, "5" would be for code 395, so Auto, I think. I believe a 4 speed would have been a "3"?...4 speed...
Probably want to post a thread with the digits, and known-to-date info, in the "Lost and Found" forum?...reconnect it back to its rightful car...
Yep. And it would have 68 under ax as well.If memory serves, "5" would be for code 395, so Auto, I think. I believe a 4 speed would have been a "3"?
Not positive - all my cheat-sheets are trapped on a dead computer's hard drive![]()
3 is 4 speed 5 auto your correct.. @kiwigtx I'll have to retract the 74 year old comment.If memory serves, "5" would be for code 395, so Auto, I think. I believe a 4 speed would have been a "3"?

**Edit** - I guess these would be the four potential VINs for the original car?
