Can anyone tackle this one for me. Yes, I know, for some unknown reason it has a hole in it.
Help will be appreciated. Thank you.

It has more than a hole in it. It's made of invisible ink.

Hope that is better for you... thanks for bringing that to my attention.

It's actually not. I still don't see anything. What do YOU see when you look at this page? Do you see the image you're trying to post? I sure don't.

Hopefully it is saved now.

I can do some of it.

65 = 1965 model year
3 = Oldsmobile
38 = F-85 Cutlass with V-8 engine
27 = 2-door post coupe body style
LAN = Lansing assembly plant
Paint W-W = "sterling mist poly" (a metallic blue) lower and upper body colors
06E = 5th week (E) of June (06) 1965 assembly date. That's very late in the model year.

That's all I can get. Others will reply with more info, I'm sure.


Can we see some photos of this car?

Thank you. I will try to download them. It needs paint, unless Patina is all the rage. Has some small amounts of rust.
It is not in my possession (yet). It is a 442 according to everything I can find. I know that was an option and not it's own Model until 1968 (my favorite year).

Looks like it could be a real sharp car with a paint job and a little TLC .
The 4V code confirms it as a 442 . Others may chime in with the other option codes .

5W is Delux front seat belt with retractors.

Thanks for all the help. This car stands a chance. Kind of crusty underneath. I need to get a real look at it. The interior shows to be pretty nice.

Here's another tidbit of info ;

Thanks again. Yes, the car does have those with the console and tachometer.

Thanks, Joe. This is very helpful.

Here is what I was sent for the interior.

Well, that's consistent with the cowl tag.

Once again, thanks for all the help. Unfortunately, the car sold today before I could get over to that town and see it.
