I don't any problem on that aspect. I believe it would fit in. Basically, fenders of 1965 and 1968 fasty are practically the same. It can even be used on the type 3 squareback.

Only differences will be trim hole size and wraparound vs. short reflector.

They're right next to the '74 Squarebacks at the Wolfsburg museum...

018**
I think it may have been manufacturerd in August, not July. It was purchased new in the UK in Oct '65.

That's what I figured by the 4 bolt wheels. The elusive 1965 Fastbacks are mistaken. They were built beginning 1. August 1965, which is the first mfg. day of the 1966 model year. Some of those cars got mistakenly titled as '65s, but the VIN tells all.

Regardless, that is one SUPERB Fastback!

I read it as 6018273

6 = 1966 model.
018273 would be mid-August, 1965.

UK commonly registers cars under the year sold so it would be registered as a '65 in the UK.

That Fastback looks NICE!

I don't like fastbacks.

I like your fastback. I think I've only said that 2 or 3 times. ever.
