Default Re: here is the VIN

5=1965
F=Dearborn Assembly Plant
07=2 door hardtop
F=260 2V
116497=16,496th car off the assembly line

Body 65A=2 Door standard Interior
Color C=(does equal Pace Car white)
Trim 42=White vinyl with Blue appointments
Date 020=should read 20"D" , a scheduled build date of April 20th, 1964
DSO 64= New Orleans sales district
Axle 1=3:00:1 gear set
Trans 6=C4 automatic


It does indeed loomk like you have a Pace Car hardtop on your hands.

As for value, that will depend on it's originality, rust, interior condition, exterior condition, originality and condition of the drivetrain and everything else about the car. Mileage will play a minor factor in the value equation, however, the originality of the car, coupled with any and all documentation on it will be the deciding factor as to what it can, and will sell for in the current collector marketplace.............


Hope you find this helpful.

Yours In Fords,
