This was on the bulletin board at York- looks like a real deal:

Hmmm... says "Made in Canada", so will he take $5000 Cdn.??? [}]

Nice car, good color. It must have had at least a right-front replacement fender, as there is no "Daytona" nameplate there. Still, sounds like a nice car and fair price.

Hmmmm...I do have a rundown of all serial nos. of '64-'66's sold new in Greenville (from retail sales cards at the SNM!).

My HT is supposed to arrive in two to three weeks...I'm anxious!

Yep, the '8' parallogram appears to be a bit higher than its supposed to be, and the aluminum trim doesn't line up with the door. NOS fenders did not have holes drilled in them for these, so the installer would have to guess where the holes went. But it looks like it has the unique Canadian Daytona sail panel chrome flags.
