Sorry, no details on the hotel but can you refresh my memory? Is your car an original SD V8 car?

What colour was your interior? I probably ended up with your console if it was black! I bought a black 4 speed console out of Washington, thinking it was a Nova console and it would have to do for my SD. When I got it, it is an Acadian console.

Playing the percentages, there was likely less than 25 4 speed 65 Canso SD's ever made, so when you want to change your's over, the console will be almost impossible to find.

I have never actually seen one in real life. I have the console in mine,and my nephew has another console to put in his for the conversion, but that's it. Seen those two consoles in my life, never a real documented 4 speed SD.

This car is a documented 250 horse 327 4 speed. Sadly,this is all that's left.

A few years back I spoke to a guy who knows of another one but he thinks it's a 300 horse. Car has been sitting in a garage about 25 years....

Would you be willing to post a picture of your cowl tag? I'd love to see what it has/had for options and build date etc.

Perfect!

May 6th build date. 1-5-6

Red R

4 speed M20

I have to run and check to make sure 919 is black interior but like you say, it appears it was. Your car was built 2 weeks after mine. That's the first PROVEN factory 4 speed 65 Sport Deluxe I've ever seen. I got interested in them when I bought my first Sport Deluxe at 16 in 1974. I wonder if GM would tell you how many 4 speed SD's were made if you got the documents for it? I am betting less than 25.

The firewall tag on the passenger side under the hood. It has info on it such as build date, colour codes, options, will verify it's a Sport Deluxe, confirms the V8 status vs 6 cyl, stuff like that.

Here is an example of one-
