color code?

[nico]

using my vin number, 4Y83Z158***, I cannot find the color code here. I cannot find it on the hood latch either. What color was my Bird? Its been painted and I'd like to return it to its original color. Interior is metalic light blue with dark blue accents. HELP!

All the imfo you need is on the warranty plate attached to the rear (lock) face of the left door. You will need a shop manual to convert the numbers and letters.

Thanks Joe,
I got it, also there's a web site data plate decoder with all the years codes.I found it in the 61-63 Forum last night.
Hey Joe do you work on birds? You live close to me so I just wondered.

I bought my 66 new and have maintained it myself. I have helped many people with problems on their flair birds. I bought a shop manual when I got the car ($6.50)and it has been a great help in taking care of the various problems we all have. Since I live in an apt. complex working on cars is just a hobby the landlady lets me enjoy as long as I don't overdue it.
I will be glad to help you in anyway I can.
