Is the IBM punch card the plate on the driver fender well? If it is the owner did trace it with pencil on a sheet of paper and put it into a Chilton's manual. but he said that body shop owner has it. We will see.
No.. the punch card is what was used to build the car with (it's what created the build sheet and what the car was built from). I believe Chrysler still has them for the 1967 model year. Some here have gotten theirs from Chrysler, they'll have to chime in to say how they got them.
I have a feeling if the owner pencil outlined the VIN tag and put it in the Chilton manual, once they find that Chilton manual they may find the VIN tag, fender tag inside it as well.
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.
You can get a punch card for `67 on back not sure how far, but you have to have proof of ownership to get it.

Your right on Mike. 440, 727 trans, PS, PB, A/C, 8-3/4 3:55 gears, Green like a aqua color. Buckets. 500 magnum wheels. Yes, it is a LA car and I noticed on the Certicard it said "Ontario, CA" I'm not sure if that was the desination or what? The speedo says 26,XXX on it.

Nicely optioned car...
That means the original owner lived in Ontario, California. it should also have their name and address as well.
Aqua green?? hmmm.. I got a VIN tag lying around for a 67 Aqua green car... If you drink lots of whiskey, I'll guarantee the first 4 letters will go from WL41 to WS23

Remember removing the vin tag is a federal offense. They are secured with special vin tag rivets which is also illeagal to even posess. Not trying to scare you, but be careful of who you tell because once that is officially documented you will have no choice but to let the state issue your car a new vin which will drastically reduce the value. Itk's value is because the vin starts with WS23L7.
If you want to tell if the car is actually a real RT, check inside the trunk, RTs were the only 2dr HT the did not have any side trim. What you are looking for is any signs of repair to the quarter panel for filling side trim holes. If someone is real good and sneaky, they will do a good job hiding them in the trunk. How ever it's difficult to repair the holes on the inside cleanly above the wheel well. You might even look in the wheel housing area too. The only exception is if the quarter was replaced on a real RT you will mose likely have holes, but a good eye can tell a quarter replacement.
Don't know the car, but it sounds real nice
Good luck.
