Got this in, and I am trying to decode it. Not a lot of luck looking online. For example someone had a different QR code and I am assuming that is the engine code on the fender tag? Trying to figure out what ABCD and QRS option #s are. I know the body type, trim, and paint, trans, tires. She was sold at A****er & Fish Plymouth Center (AKA Hollywood Plymouth) located in Hollywood, CA. Not so sure about everything else. As the car sits, it has the aero steering wheel, 318 2 barrel, PS, PB, manual windows, padded dash, toilet seat, manual bench seat, no A/C, stock AM radio(?) which looks different than the stock one from my 60 Savoy's radio.
