.
its 50 years old and parts get changed.
look very closely on the drivers side vent **** . . it will have an A on it that might be worn off . . if there is no image of an A, it may have been rebodied.
look inside the trunk at the spare tire hold down bracket . . if it has a small loop instead of a 3" long slot, it is a 66 car.
you need to look under the fener lips for the hidden vin's . . if they are different or not there you my have a problem.

The interior was originally black but has been replaced at some point with the full red set up including carpets and red dashboard.

There is no A on vent ****, 3 speed fan (not 2) passanger seat moves (i thought it shouldnt) Any thoughts on this would be VERY helpful

look under the rocker panels . . there will be a date on them unless they have been changed or the number has been bondoed over and post the number for us.
i also suggested you look in the trunk at the tire hold down which you have not done . . if you do not look at these different things, no one can help you.
