Best answer here is that everyone is kinda right.
The SAAC World Registry sums it up nicely...
Three different types of serial number plates were used on the 427 cars.
The plate referenced from csxinfo.net (without the snake) is accurate and correct for Comp and S/C cars, as well as some street cars. The s/n was engraved with a hand-engraving tool.
The AC Cars plate, as used on the CSX2000 line, appeared on some mid-numbered cars, including the narrow-hip version (mid-CSX31xx). These had the numbers hand-stamped.
The plate style in the original post of this thread, with the snake logo, was used on most cars over CSX33xx, as well as "updated" and unsold lower serial number cars. This was done at the end of 1966 when the model year flipped. They too were mostly hand-stamped.
Questions?
