    So I guess I can't decifer any of the information towards mine past the second line since mine came with a 6. Looks like all the rest of the information is with having a 302. So do we stop comparing the information once we get to a line that does not match? I am thinking that if so then the report is pretty unique to each vehicle.

    Wow! Your Comet and my 73 Maverick (non-Grabber) were bucked, built, and released on the same days! Mine however was serialized on 06/14 and ordered on 05/14. Will never know, but they could have been back to back.

    Yes Craig, mines a KC car also. In fact all my Mav's are. I've only cataloged one Wayne car back in 2000! In Tyler Texas.
