Mcronk you may not see this in time , but if you do , please get a picture of the trim tag or make note of the build date on tag.
This is the invoice , but their placard says they have Buildsheet too -- if you can get a picture of that.
It will tell its first purpose.

Its a multi-invoice car that was ordered within PMD for use within PMD.
There would have been other invoice(s) as well.
The most interesting thing I see on the invoice is its exit code is 35-998 ,
usually these from the motherland used 35-997 as exit code.
35-998 was the designation for Engineering Dept.
This car possibly has several invoice copies for multiple duties within the camp.

It is much rarer than the 1 of 241 they have listed.
241 is the number for all 455 RamAir AUTOMATIC cars hardtop & convertible total.
We know of about maybe a dozen convertibles.

I think also 241 , or similar smallish amount was also number of 455 HO convertibles
But that doesn't apply to how many had RamAir - maybe 10% of that number.
