Happy Birthday.

My car was built in Oct 1965 and I was born in July of 1965.  That's kind of close.  We are both mostly original and unrestored.  I think the car has had less repairs than me...

Neil,
Is your undercarriage as clean and fresh as your car's?  ;D  Happy birthday.  I'm about 2 months separated from my car's birthday in 1966.

Happy belated Birthday to you and your pagoda!  How do you know the exact B-Day of your pagoda?  Are you going by the date stamped on the steering wheel hub?

Happy Birthday and many adventures together to come!

There is a stamp on data card that you can consider a production date.
