Whole front end is wrong. Grille, no PONTIAC on hood, front fender emblems.
Actual listing has more pics than cdnpont posted but they are from so far away it's hard to see details. And taken with a cell phone so they have all those blurry lines.
I emailed for the data plate info. We'll see if he responds. Perhaps it was miss represented when he got it.
Old story but here goes. Many years ago, prior to CP and kijiji, a guy in Alberta advertised a 65 CS on ebay. From the pic it obviously wasn't. I emailed him asking for data plate info which he sent. It was a plain Parisienne and I told him so. He emailed back that I must be mistaken. After a few emails back and forth he was firm in his stance that it was a CS. I sent him a copy of the serial number breakout sheet from the parts book. His reply was that he would be having a serious conversation with his appraiser who had ensured him it was a CS.
Does a CS have any other interior differences other than buckets, console, vacuum gauge? I'm not aware of any if there are, but I've never had a 65 either.

Hand in hand with the buckets are the door panels which have a small CS medallion.
