There is no 935 paint code.

Are you sure it doesn't say 936?

(could be a factory mistake????)

Congrats on your new Split!
I think I've seen that car for sale...I listed it in my '63 file as now painted Burgundy.
Can you post a picture of your Trim Tag? It should be paint code 936A but I've seen
another one or 2 cars that had the code wrong like you are describing.
What is the Body number? I think it should be right around #3,866 or so.

I think you might be right. It seems like at least 4 SWC's have new owners in the last month.

You can fake 67 big blocks but you can't fake a split window Cp. Except on TV shows when they make a convertible a SW. Every good car collection must have a 63 SW.
