1962 Ply Fury

[Ronald Weishaar]

Is there any way to positively identify this car as a Max Wedge car?/ The serial # 3421131700,I've have decoded it along with the fender tag and there is nothing to say it's a Max Wedge car.

Well it was built at Lynch Road. 4th digit in vin being a "1". All Plymouth MW were built there.

It came with bucket seats and push button auto.

What number is under the "A" on the fender tag?

the fender tag of capital letters are:
A B C D E F G H J K L M N P Q R
4 5 1 5 3 1

the fender tag of capital letters are:
A B C D E F G H J K L M N P Q R
4 5 1 5 3 1

for some reason the post puts all the number together, the correct run of numbers are: under A is 4, under B is 5, under C is 1, Under J is 5, under L is 3 and under N is 1.

Your VIN# is not a 413 Super Stock (Max Wedge) factory built car according to Darrell Davis's 1962 Guide Book. The S/N in your VIN is an earlier year build than the lowest 3421 Sport Fury VIN. 3421163541 is the earliest Sport Fury listed as a 413 MW. All factory 413 MW 1962s were built at Lynch Road and were late year production. Hope this answers your questions.

4 under the "A" code 504 = 361 1-4 bbl 305 hp

5 under the "B" ??? Might be a "2" code 342 Torqueflight

1 under the "C" = code 361 AM Music Master economy radio

5 under the "J" = code 385 Heater front with defroster

3 under the "L" = code 423 Back-up lights

1 under the "N" = (Not sure)

Any time John. Darrell Davis did a lot of research to compile the info in his series of MW books. I was lucky to get a 62 Plymouth copy. Has all the VIN#s listed with other info. I also talked to Darrell several times when researching these cars. Hopefully you, Ronald, and i can hook up sometime when the weather clears.
