decoding 1964 F85 Cowl plate - new owner

Time Built 02C - February Third Week
Style 64-3027 - Club coupe
Body LA - Lansing
Trim 915 - I cannot find this information.
Paint C-C - provincial white
ACC 4B - I also cannot find this option.

Trying to figure out that Trim 915 and ACC 4B stand for.

Thanks

I have that 915 means maroon vinyl interior.

3027 actually decodes into

30 = F-85 series (not F-85 Deluxe and not Cutlass)
27 = club coupe (2-door post) body style

While the Club Coupe version of the F-85 had the highest production of any '64 F-85 at 16,298, I would have to guess that there are relatively few around today.

Is this your car? Can we see some photos of it?

We can tell you what your car's VIN is, too.

If it has the Econ-O-Way V-6, it's 604MXXXXXX. If it's got the 330 V-8, it's 804MXXXXXX.

Its 804MXXXXXX. It is a v8 car. Just purchased as a surprise present for my father in law. He had a hard top as a young adult but I think this will work.

Beautiful car. My father bought a '64 Cutlass convertible when I was a kid. I wish I had it now. I always thought the '64 Cutlasses and F-85s were among the best-looking Cutlasses Olds ever made.

i like the 64 tail lights more than the 65. From my research it looks like this is a bare bones model, which is kinda odd. Anybody know what the 4b stands for?

Rustyra is spot on-915 trim is the "granny base' model like my 64 Pro-Touring build under mass construction. FYI-That short spear on the hood is very hard to replace. Mine says 4A? Very nice "post car" to work with!
