The car was originally a small block with the lower hp 5500 red line tack, Muncie 4 speed with a wonder-bar radio. White with a red interior, no other options withstanding. Super straight never hit body though, lines on it like a new car still. Thanks for including me, Brian

Thanks for the additional info! Very much appreciated.
BTW, your coupe would have had a B-W tranny not Muncie. The Muncie transmissions started right around serial #15,000.
Thanks again!

The tranny must have been replaced at sometime as the casting number is 3851325 indicating a 64 Muncie. Brian

I had your Coupe recorded in my file as being a Red/Black 340 project car and now have corrected it's entry to show Sebring Silver along with it's Body number. I'm always happy to record/correct the original colors especially when they are Red as so many were repainted to Red over the years.
I presume your coupe is a 4spd?
Thanks again!

Syd -- do you have my old '63 FI convertible blk/blk, VIN 7055 ? I even had it in Montreal for a year or so. Started going through the posts, but the thread is so large; would have taken me a day to check them all.

Yes I have your old '63 #7,055 recorded in my file. I think you gave me it's info many years ago.
I have it listed as #7,055 - a Black/Black FI Roadster with PW, metallic brakes, HT and Black soft top with the notation 'info 1978', which is probably the last time you saw it??
Was it a 4spd car?
By chance, did you ever jot down it's trim tag info back in the day? I also don't know it's body number.
Thanks Wayne!
