Hi all:
Thanks Henry for the heads up. I would never have thought about looking under the glove compartment for any marking.
After reading Henry's e-mail, I scurried down to the gargage to see for myself. Sure enough there was a marking but it is only a "1" in yellow crayon. Seems like this may be a day but no indication as to the month. As near as I can determine from paperwork and talking to the original owners' son, they, father and son, picked the car up on July 10, 1960. The VIN is 840359095. Does anyone with a 300F and has a VIN close to mine have information as to when their F was manufactured? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
