Bryan,
The '65 style EM air filters as used on the '65 FCs and the '65 cars with a/c were slightly different from the "regular" EM twin air filters... the base "cans" have a beveled bottom edge, not the usual "flat" bottom... anyone with a '65 car with a/c can confirm it... (as long as the air filters are original)...
Just sayin' because Bryan brought it up.
;-)
Later,
Lonzo

A/C was not available with the 140 in '65.  The '65s used the EM air cleaner to 
o with the air conditioner condenser.  In '66 the condenser moved to the air 
nlet above the engine and became an option on 140s, but not on turbos.

 You're right.  RR is for a '66 Corsa 140 with A/C.  All Corsa models were 
ither 3 or 4 speed manual transmissions.  The data I initially cited came from 
lark's 1999-2000 catalog and does not delineate the difference between RR and 
B. The CORSA Technical Guide does not list the RR code for 1965.  Was A/C (RPO 
64) available on a '65 Corsa?  Bob, what does your database indicate?
