Here's what I show:
Model Year 1965
8/1/64 12/31/64 7/31/65
Engine number:
1500 33KW 45BHP 633331 816281 1100000
1500 30KW 41BHP (M240) 633331 816281 1100000
1500 40KW 54BHP 633331 816281 1100000
1500 38KW 52BHP (M240) 633331 816281 1100000
Chassis number:
315 000 001 315 105 296 315 220 883
I have always assumed that these were high and low compression versions
of single and dual carb engines. It appears that the prefix letters were left off
the official sequences before MY66, perhaps to "simplify" them.
