#1 1965 FHC chassi number? Build data?

Post by trondvo » Wed Apr 19, 2023 12:31 pm

Hello, Its a longshot but anyone have access to build data for 1E30933?

I have the possibility to buy it and have seen the car, it is in good "driving condition" but it do need an amount of elbow grease and some funds as well to meet my standards. I used to have a '65 FHC and a 4.2 car would be a nice addition.

It is now white with blue interior but I did find blue on the bottom of one of the doors. White is not my first choice of colours and another colour from factory could be a deciding factor. :roll:

It may have had a replacement door fitted in its past donated from a blue car

Yes, I could of course have it repainted but again, I wanted a 4.2 car in drivers condition while I do the nuts and bolts resto my '62 FHC (slower story).

This is the car, what do you think?
