Re: IML: 1959 Fender Tag Decode

["Frederic Mardon" <fmardon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

My 2-cent contribution :
Body type :
- Custom MY1-L
 612 = 2-door coupe
 613 = 4-door sedan
 614 = 4-door hardtop
- Crown MY1-M
 632 = 2-door coupe
 633 = 4-door sedan
 634 = 4-door hadrtop
 635 =  convertible
- LeBaron MY1-H
 653 = 4-door sedan
 654 = 4-door hardtop

HO = Hood Ornament ? (suggestion)

Frédéric
