The body was built first week of December 1964 calendar year, and the rest of the car completed just prior to your 12/11/64 delivery date.

My sense is that the order was placed in July but the physical build was not started until after the strike was settled and production resumed.

As opposed to getting the order in and the car out before the strike (which is what happened with my car).

The only other scenario is that the car was started and then stuck mid process. Typically we cover the cars/parts with visqueen during long work stoppages, like a strike or volume adjustment downtime. We try to minimize the number of vehicles in this case because damage can and does occur. That doesn't seem to be what happened here.
