136809Z326784, this is the VIN:
1 - Chevrolet, 36 = Malibu, Custom El Camino, Concours w/8 cylinder, 80 = 2 door Sedan Pickup, 9 = 1969 model year, Z = plant (Freemont, CA), 326784 = production sequence.

Cowl Tag:
69 = 1969, 3680 = V-8 El Camino 2 door sedan pickup

The rest I can't seem to make out, can you take a picture of the cowl tag and send it to me? Might be able to give you a little more help.
