OK I'm asking the experts. I recently purchased a 63 Monza coupe with factory 
AC. The car has been through a few owners and somewhere along the line it was 
changed to look like a 64.Everthing,including interior, trim,rear suspension, 
taillights etc are 64. The engine lid has the holes for the crossed flags, 
but no other holes for the Corvair nameplate. On close inspection none were 
filled, drilled or moved. The front panel has a 64 grille bar but again no 
holes 
for the 63 triangle emblem, nor does it appear to ever to have had any. 
Wouldn't a factory AC car have the 95 horse engine, thus no crossed flags? I 
can see 
the lid being changed but to what? Thoughts?

No flame...Are you that niave???  It's a 64  that's had the ID plate 
changed...OR  is was bought in a state that registered cars by when sold..not model 
year [ you hope!]

not...
