Vin decode
I looked at vin tag today on a 1964 Catalina the numbers matched the title but the letter for the assembly plants were different The car had an L and the title had a K But for 1964 I can't find either letter being used for a assembly plant. anyone ever run in to this ? This is what I found for 1964 the 4th digit - Assembly plant -
B = Baltimore, MD D = Doraville, GA E = Linden, NJ F = Fremont, CA G = Framingham, MA M = Kansas City, MO P = Pontiac, MI R = Arlington, TX S = Southgate, CA U = Lordstown, OH X = Kansas City |

Don't know about 1964, but in 1961 K was Kansas City and L was Linden.

One could verify that by checking the VIN on the engine or trans (if original) or on the frame. K

Vin Decode
The G M Leeds plant in Kansas City Missouri used the M in 64 on my 64 GTO VIN and the G M Fairfax plant in Kansas City Kansas might have used a K on the big cars. I will look at my sons old 64 Grand Prix VIN number cuz I think it was a Fairfax car.

This is from the service manual:
And cowl tag: Does the cowl tag plant match the VIN?

Vin decode
I checked the title work on my sons 64 Grand Prix which was built at the Fairfax K.C. Kansas big car plant and they used K in the vin. My 64 GTO was built at K.C. Mo. and uses M in the vin. In Zazarine's old GTO recogintion book he said the K.C. Mo. Leeds plant started using K in their VIN's in 65. Does that sound right?
