Somewhere there was an article as to how the production line operated, from getting the orders in the system until they came off the line. Don't remember where it was but, probably here on FBBO, but as my car is a code 691 (sold car) the fender tag I'm sure was used to call out the options that...
Sorry to hear that but it might still be there but in a different location. If you could post pictures of the BS the would be great as well as posting the full VIN so the search engines can see it. The other owner may be looking for it.
Value is tough to say all depends on condition, originality, options and rarity. Also, all depends on what someone will pay for it. All of the auctions (Barrett Jackson, Mecum...) have driven costs thru the roof.
I bet the build sheet is still in there, has to be based on the info you've provided. Back in the day no one really looked for build sheets but today we're all looking for documentation. Check behind the back seat top. Now the real question is when you find it will it be for your car.

I live in the next town over from raybestos which was in stratford ct. I remember they had a green pond out in the front from all the pollution. Raybestos polluted stratford heavily. I have friends that live there and when they were kids they used to play in the dirt piles loaded with the dust...
Thanks Mark & Big D for all of the pic's & explanations.
I've gotten to be a junkie on decoding these. Mark you should build a timeline of all of the parts in date order so we can see how this beauty all came together.
Big congrat's to you on such a beautiful time capsule!
