Just pulled my brothers 56 out of the barn after an 18 year nap, installed battery, cleaned points and it fired right up. Ran it off a remote gas can though, the gas line is plugged up.

My oldest brother brought this car from Texas in 68 and I was decifering the vin tag when I noticed the paint code had 3 letters, JES which is buckskin Tan, colonial white and the S I believe stands for special.

It appears that it was a special ordered car, it came with factory airconditioning. it is a 4 dr Fairlane Town sedan but there are other letters and numbers in the production code that I must not have in my paper work.

Here is my break down of it.

*M6DT169985*

Body   Color    Trim     Production code

73C      JES      BJ          8B   438C

M=292,   6=year 56, D= Dallas,  T=Tudor & Fordor

73C= Fairlane Town Sedan   JES= Buckskin Tan/Colonial white/Special   BJ=Medium brown & medium brown cloth  8B= 8th day of February produced,

Now my paperwork does not tell me what the last 4 letters/numbers mean in the production code (438C) Can anyone tell me what this signifies and what is special about the paint??? it does have a 2 tone dash which is buckskin tan in the center with a bronze poly above and below???

All help appreciated, Thanks

Bill
