Production order for R5365 is dated 8/21/63 It was ordered as an R2 and sent to engineering where they cobbled in air conditioning, putting the compressor in the power steering pump space and reversing the hardware in the cabin. It was delivered to Filmways in southern California and not licensed for the street until the fall of 1964. I presume this car was used on the Mr. Ed show or in commercials. Itıs VIN tag sports the number R5365B.
