Fisher Body Number Plate - Body identification
is provided by the Fisher Body Number Plate.
Information such as style and body numbers,
trim numbers, and paint color code is found on
this plate. Refer to the 1965 Body Service Manual
for detailed information regarding this plate.
Engine Numbers - All 1965 engines are stamped
with two different identification codes. One is the
production code number. See Figure 0-2. This
identifies the type of engine and its production
date. The other is the engine serial number. This
is the legal engine number and is the same num-
ber found on the vehicle identification plate. This
number is used on registrations, titles, and other
legal documents while the production code num-
ber is used to identify the engine on product
reports and similar correspondence.
