despite Restoration professional's extensive inquiries to over 50 contacts in his network and professional background we have not had any luck finding out exactly what this car is and why we see such odd differences in the car as the restoration moves forward.
Just a short list of the Odd and uncommon very particular conditions in the body:
o 1962 is written in large black numbers inside the door, rear and interor panels
o There is a turcoise fiberglass cloth along the front and back sides of the car (and in multiple locations inside the car) instead of what should be resident matting- this was clearly done at the factory as the locations of this material are percision accurate and only apply to where the chnaged in the body were made from the 61 to a 62- but why?

]. Earlier issues start out saying was "originally" a fuel car. Black only mentioned in 1979 timeframe. He had it at least from 1976. Also had '62 VIN 00013, with original engine; so probably means # 00001 did not have its original (by omission).
