A 331 with a VIN stamp...wait is this a Delorean? F code (Dearborn) didn’t have red oxide floors, they were black. Looks like a nice car but doubt it’s an original K and would only consider paying nice looking car price for it
 
the engine VIN is essential. EVERY 66 was wired for fog lights, so that GT factor isn't determining like a 65.
A VIN stamped block means nothing. We're talking about a newer 331 with a 66 VIN stamp which proves that point. The practice of stamping a VIN on block and trans varied by plant, Metuchen for example was not 100% in this practice. I'm one of those with day 1 documentation and no VIN stamp. I have also discussed this with Fred Ballard who has owned a few Metuchen cars without a stamp and at least 1 with a stamp. Fortunately Metuchen cars came with buck tags and many with build sheets that would also help to confirm authenticity of K and/or GT package.

I have never heard that all 66 cars came wired for fog lights. Do you have a source for that? I always thought they had a different under dash harness and other things. The determining factor (maybe) in 65 was a cutout in the dash to accommodate the 5 gauge cluster. This was done for Pony interiors also so it is not a guarantee
