Hi TI
Gorgeous job! I saw this car last year when you had it apart. Congratulations! For a building contractor, you do fantastic first class car restoration work. You put a lot of the professional shops around here to shame.

That's an awesome restoration! Nice job.
Is that the original engine? I was wondering if the VIN matches the number stamped on the block. The cowl tag indicates the second week of April but the stamping on the block shows a Feb 13th assembly date. Does anyone know, could the engine be assembled two months before the car?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not out to discredit your car, I'm just curious about the time frames for assembly of these cars.

My 64 shows 11B on the cowl tag with T0830QB on the engine. So I quess thats not a problem.

That is so pretty it would hurt me to drive it! great job! Nice stance also, what size rear tires?

First TI I've seen. Really neat restoration.

I had heard from one source that on the VIN and the body tag there was no way to tell one V8 from another ie 283 from an 09. Or are there specific codes to look for on them.
