Is this the correct trunk lid ?  I've been told it isn't but I have seen a lot of conflicting information.

Thanks !

My lid has a date stamp.   Seems yours has one to ?  Brian

It has 3 layers of paint and until I strip them off I can't read the date stamping. 

I was going more by the style of the trunk lid because I know some have the circles and some don't and I'm not sure what the other variations are. 

I know it's not the original trunk lid because the original owner told me that it was stolen along with the trap door many years ago.

Thanks !

Looks correct to me including the wire harness clip on the left hand side holding the tension rod.

The circles started sometime in '66 production.

I  had a February '65 scheduled build fastback with that style trunk lid.

Yes it appears to be correct visually for a 65 San Jose installation

Date code would give you an idea if it came from another car

Got something like a 10 or 11 to start the date code with ?
