overflow tank date?

[Michael S.]

i know the date code on the 63 and up cars are year then month. i have a car with the build date of december 6th 1963. i am looking for an overflow tank. question: do they use all the letters or do they skip the letter i? i would like to find a november dated tank. would that be 63k? or 63l if the i is not used?

Re: overflow tank date?

The tanks were batch built. Mike is correct they were not manufactured every month. Noland Adams book list tank dates with the corresponding vin numbers. He shows 63H (vin 00964 & 01606)), 63J (vin 02440 & 02595 & 03600), 63K (04348 & 04719 & 04952 & 05804), 63M (07297 & 08769 & 08880 & 09549 & 10348 & 10771). He didn't show any 63L tanks. Also Dewitt makes a nice repro and also as a much larger data base.
