It should be 5S115615 - that would be the frame under a '65 that was built on April 21, 1965.

John, just getting back to my research and wanted to clarify my VIN is 30867S115615, are you certain about the frame date? According to my research, the VIN indicates a May 21, 1963 build.

78Vette-SA, and JohnZ, it is an "S". Marks69BB, this site confirms May 21, 1963. 78 Vette-SA, I had to do mine with a mirror, but got some very ledgible photographs.
