I am not sure how to tell if my car is a true cutlass or the f 85 the dash says cutlass and the right fender has a cutlass tag the rear trim plate has f85 and the left front fender has the v 8 tage not really sure if there are other clues or if there all just the same any help would love to learn more about this car

 

is it a hardtop? (no post when windows rolled down)
all hardtops were cutlass'
can you post a pic of your data tag?

 

these style codes are cutlass only

 

Good day
Well i have a 1964 and and it's both? 1964 cutlass F-85
I know in 64 i believe they didn't have it all together with the new models so mine is badge both for some reason and after reading have not found another reason.
Mine was build in canada.

 

they are all f85, cutlass is the top of the heap as far as interior and chrome, mine is also canadian, some slight differences to our southern built cars

 

Yes it's a hard top is the data tag the one in the engine area so witch tag should be on the fender the cutlass or the v 8 or did they put non matching tags ?

 

Fenders, emblems, etc could have been changed over the last FOURTY SEVEN years due to accidents or rust. The VIN will tell you exactly what it is.

 

I have a very similar 1965 vehicle, convertible, provincial white, 330 cid, jet-a-way automatic, and it´s classified as an authentic Cutlass F -85. The VIN and body tag will tell you for sure.

 

Hay Stan Are you up on Canadian built?
I have yet to decifer the body tags on my 64 convertible.
I have to pics up on here for all to see it's a driver that needs our attention.Whats the easiest way to post pics?

 

i believe your car should have cutlass tags on the fenders, f 85 cutlass on dash, cutlass on rear panel,

 

64 is slightly different on some codes, for pics i use photobucket and a complicated method, i believe there is an easier way straight from your computer, maybe someone will chime in then we will both know

 

best way is to send in your vin to get decoded at gm historical services

Good Morning:
Sorry Stan had to step out yesterday.
This is what i have.
Vin# -is eleven dijit number
Front engine bay tag.
Style 3276 1-12-17
Body No- 352122
Paint- V
Trim- 965

This is what i have on my fire wall tag.
The 65 info does not jive with the 64 stuff that i could fine anyhow.

 

Unfortunately that only works for a car that was either built in or originally sold in Canada. The OP shows Utah as a location, so I suspect this is not a Canadian car.

 

that was in response to 64 vert yaman's question

 

i got a few of em,
3267 convertible
