Hi John,

On the Fisher body tag, upper left corner, is the build week.  Looks like yours is early in the build year, I'd guess October '64?  You can also see the engine build date, it would precede the car by a couple or three weeks.  I don't think anyone has it mapped down to the day, but I could well be wrong.

I'll take one of the Corvairs (that runs) out to baseball practice today.  Now I just need to pick up some hot dogs and apple pie :-)
