According to Rallye's catalog the 1600 was introduced June 1965.
>From what I've read the 65 1500 is kind of an oddity and I definately
want to add it to the page. Apparently it has the external truck
hinges, but not the wacky trunk handle of earlier 1500's. Do you
have a stock 65 1500 with overriders etc? I'd love to add a rear
view shot that matches the others in the series.
I plan on doing a section on badges and emblems next as well as a
section on ID plates for the next installment.
