Interesting to note this is a very early 1965 model year production convertible (August, 1st week of 1964) as noted by the body number and sequence number. Other August body dates at the bottom of the page are very late 1965 production cars indicating a more than 12 month assembly period for 1965 models from Baltimore.
* Also note the VIN indicates a 6-cylinder engine so 6-cyl production figure shown.
