Thanks for the input.
That's what I have been thinking. It is odd though that the motor number matches the build date time of the rest of the car. Must just be a coincidence. The generator also says 7V on it, so it may have been re-cored to 12 V.
Thanks!
Thanks!

1500 Oil bath air cleaner

VIN Follow Up
Thanks for you help. I have figured out that the VIN on the front plate is etched rather than in raised form, and is to the right of the "156" raised designation. I'll clean it and check.
Thanks again.

VIN Confusion
I am looking at purchasing a 1966 convertible. I have looked at the VIN numbers and here is what I find. The title: 1563487xx (November 1965 build?) The floor stamp under the rear seat on the chassis: same as above. All good. The plate behind the wheel in the boot shows the following: 156 (top row),...
