Unless the original owner saved the window sticker and passed it along with the car, you are SOL. Body number means next to nothing.
Beginning with the '67 model we can hope to find the 'build sheet' stuck to the top of the fuel tank.
Looks really, really grim. Not for the feint of heart. :ohnoes JM.02
Vin plate is spot welded to the steering column under the hood. (I think.)
Start at 4K. (So you can part it out if you have to.)
I made one of those when I changed the fuel pump on mom's '59 wagon.:upthumbs
Not really very hard to do. You just bolt up the new pump without lifting the unseen pushrod that had fallen down.
