???? OK, how do folks do this? ESP? Did you call a psychic????
Seriously, there must be a manual or plant records that maybe some sells
copies of?
Would anyone mind looking up mine? I have an SV, VIN # B395002562 LRX color
39. I think it is a late 1965, since it is titled as a 1965 but the SV
wasn't made until September of 1965. On a related note, would that be known
as a 1966 in the US? I know that we often considered it a new model year in
September, however, I never thought about how late-in-the year cars were
titled.
And on a second related note, I called Chrysler to find out if they had any
Rootes information. So far, I just got someones answering machine and they
haven't called me back.
Related notes finished. Thanks,
Patrick
