From Decoding my VIN - H59L 183587
And I get - Your car is a: 1271 series 8 cylinder sedan Delivery or an 1280 El Camino. Year is a 1959 and it was built in Los Angeles, CA
Both the 348 and the PG (based on casting) are correct for a '59. Since I don't have build sheet, is there any reason to think the engine or transmission is not original? Or the original customer ordered an upgrade?
Not anything important but a curiosity on my part. Especially since the trim doesn't have the crossed flags, just the big V.
The cowl tag info just for grins:
Style 59-1280
Body VN 5468
Trim 803
Paint 936A
ACC EZI FR BD
Any thoughts?
