This tag is for a 1965 Coronet 440 convertible.
Am I reading this correctly that code 20 is a 6 cylinder in this car? Thanks

There is conflicting information on the tag, according to my source. The W in the W35 code means coronet 8, but 20 is the code for a 225 six cylinder. What is the first digit or letter on your VIN tag.

VINs and tags coded differently. The tag shows Coronet line (W) regardless of engine and the body style.

AB/20 = /6

Vin number on title.
So this looks like it’s an original 6 cylinder Coronet 440 convertible?

Yes, it is a six cyl. coronet 440. I've learned at least two mopar facts in the last week. I didn't know they used only the one digit on the fender tag to describe both six and eight cyl. cars, in 1965. I won't bore you with the other one.
