Hello,

I recently aquired a 1965 mustang fastback. The body code is missing on the car or i am just blind and cant see if but i have been searching for it for a few days. I was wondering if there is anyway to cross reference it if you have the vin number of the car.

Any kind of help would be EXTREMELY greatful

Thanks, Matt

 

Not sure what you mean by body code...?

That gives you all the info you can find out with the VIN #

 

Miscellaneous Vehicle Data

the body, color, trim, date, D.S.O, axel, transmission

I think the "door plates" might have been taken off when the previous previous owner was painting the car or it was cut off by accident not sure.

 

So are you looking for the actual vin number on the car? If so there is one on the door and one on the driver side fender stamped in it when you open the hood.

 

If the door (data) tag is missing your outta luck as thats the only place theVehicle Data was located.

(edit) *IF* you have the VIN number you could try...(end edit)
You could order a Marti Report and get it that way. The Basic report is only 17.00 bucks. I'd go for the Deluxe myself though for 46.00 bucks. You could also contact Ford Customer Assistance Center and ask for a Ford CAC History Report. These are offered for free and are directly from Ford. An example. Not sure if this contact info still works but you can try:

Ford Motor Company
Customer Assistance Center 300
Renaissance Center
P.O. Box # 43360 Detroit, MI 48243
(800) 392-3673 or
(313) 322-3000


Good luck!

 

marti report is a waste of time for 65-66 all records were lost by ford. fastback body code is 63B you may get luckly and find the build sheet I found mine taped to the wiring behind the gage panal.
