1965 Chevelle Body Number Plates ~ Fremont, CA. (BF)
August 1964 - February 1965

[ 1964 ] | [ 1965 ] | [ 1966 ] | [ 1967 ] | [ 1968 ] | [ 1969 ]

It is known that in 1965 Fremont coded trim tag style numbers with an even 3rd digit for a V8 and an odd 3rd digit for an L6 so the Fisher Body Style number is a valid resource to tell if the car was a V8 or L6.

[ August 1964 - February 1965 ] | [ March - July ]

Note that although this tag is dated 7A, it is a very early model year tag (July of 1964) with a body number of 74 as opposed to the 2A tag (towards the bottom of the page) that is obviously a very late model year convertible tag (July 1965) with a body number 390. Interesting to note convertibles do not have top color designated on the trim tag.
