Welcome to the board Rocketer. What plant and build date is the car from if you don't mind me asking?

So the engine you bought at a swap meet a year ago is the original engine to the car you recently found??

Default Ram Air IV convertable

Hi tomanyponchos
The car is a freemont car. Build is february 2nd week. as for the motor being original to the car ,the buld date is december 27 1968. I have seen ram air IV's being built earlier than car before,but never this early. The vin is barley legable but appears to be correct. Have any of you seen ram IV's built 8 weeks earlier than production of car before??

Welcome to PY!

What a great find.

Car looks awesome and having the RA IV engine still.
Cool.

I'd think since the RA IV wasn't a very active combo, they'd have a longer lead time possibly?

(make a few batches of RA IV's and wait for the cars to get ordered?)

Fremont had barely visible VINs in different spots than most.

Not to say it doesn't happen. But never seen a WW RA IV built that early before, and it matches a car you found later is like winning the lotto X2 with it being a solid Matador Red with parchment hideaway vert.

Congratz!!
