Date on door tag and bellhousings

    • Official Post

    Hi,

    A Kar with a date « 06A », on the data plate, was borned with 5 or 6 bolts bellhousings?

    Is she considered as a 1965 or 1964 1/2 Kar?

    Thanks.

    That date code definitely would have a 6 bolt bellhousing.

    It is definitely a 65 however the VIN is what makes the change from "64 1/2" to 65. Both assembly plants had their own run of VINs reflecting the change.
