Smitty says:  (Big snips in the above)  Question that would come to my
mind first is, is it a 63 or 64.  The "hidden" body number is just above
the front crossmember on the frame rail outer skin (behind the spring
tower).  It should match the door jamb number. (VIN).  A factory AC car
wouldn't necessarly have a 95 hp engine.  The crossed flags only indicate
that the car had the Hi Performance engine option.  If it were a 63  84
hpor 64 95 hp they would both be low perf and thus no crossed flags.
