Nice Catch Doug. That of course was a typo. It is impossible for the first car in 64 to be FC22683 when production ended in Dec. of 1963.

So your car was manufactured very early in 1964. Where did you come up with the 44573 number? According to the BMIHT there were on cars with Commission numbers between FC44657 and FC49999.

Looks like that was: FC22700-45753 My '75, I was able to figure out the original color. The car's in transit to me this week -- the FC# isn't enough to figure out original color though, right?
