Would anyone be so kind and help decode this tag?
The FSM helps decode the VIN plate - but not the tag.
It is a 1966 crown coupe, delivered in Dec.´65 from the "west coast promo office" in Calif.
I know it has (or had): A/C, tilt-o-scope steering column, vinyl roof.

The decoder I use is down, hopefully up next week.

A22 Oct 22 Scheduled Production Date
39212 Sequence Number
YM23 Imperial 2 Door Hardtop
M9X Medium Black Interior (Cloth?)
AA1 Silver Mist Poly

81 440 4BBL
5 727 Automatic Transmission

Not sure of the rest of the codes
S1 is A/C
X6 Black Vinyl Top

R5 is the radio, which version I don't know

So, that's some of it. I wish I knew more, I'm slowly memorizing the codes.

Thanks! It all appears to be correct (original rear seats are still there - black leather. According to a brochure that came with the car: Whale oil treated!)
The radio is AM with an automatic antenna.
Will be interesting to know the rest, when that is possible.
 
Regular online decoders are sketchy at best and even more so for Imperials.
