1965 Dodge Dart Charger

How do I tell if my car was LA built? It is mostly an unmolested original.

EDIT: My vin is 2455109202 so it seems I have an LA built car. If our cars came off the production line fairly close to each other I would imagine that many details are similar. Please make a list of items you would like photos of and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the offer C130 Chief!

The areas that I would like pictures of is;
- trunk area. Each sideof the trunk and how the wires were hooked up besides the outer
tail light
- the blacked out area behind the grille
- the stamping on the heater box
- the masking of the brackets for the upper Control arm beforethey shot undercoating in
the Wheel wells

Your car is definitely assembled in Los Angeles.
2 is for slant 6 car
455 is for 2 dr hardtop assembled in Los Angeles
109202 is the vin number. Since the start of the VIN number series was 100 000 my guess is that your car was assembled in September of 1964. Check the 3 digit numbers at the left lower corner of the fender tag. First digit is month and the next is assembly date.

Today the right side was to be assembled. I even put up the inner roof rail mouldings with NOS screws! The body plugs for the inner sides was mounted as well. It's getting better and better!
