Having some trouble decoding the ACC line of the cowl tag. What is “WD40”?

Car that is advertised is a Triple black Corsa convertible.

It was auctioned in Feb 20 and now again up in July... May jump in if the price is right.

Group 1
W= Tinted front windshield, D= Power top

Group 4
"O" = Turbo 180 engine.

Not hard to look up info here.

Brad will probably decode the entire tag for you later today.

This 1966 Corvair Corsa convertible was produced in the third week of April 1966 (04C) at the Willow Run, Michigan plant (WRN). The body was originally painted Ermine White with a black convertible top (C-2) and a Black interior (758).

As mentioned earlier, ACC Codes WD4O decode as follows...

1966 Fisher bodytags ACC line. (WRN and LOS)
The Letters are listed in groups. Letters following a number is in that group. The code letters are listed in the order they would appear. Some letters are in more than one group
Most 1965 codes carried over to 1966 unchanged. (New std equip eliminated some codes)

First Group ( no numeric indicator)
E = RPO A01 Tinted Glass ( Soft Ray glass in all windows)
D = RPO C06 Power Top (Manual top standard, no indicator)
W = RPO A02 Tinted Windshield only
O = Two tone paint trimpiece ( sedans only)
L = folding rear seat (500 series only)

2 = Second Group
M = RPO M35 Powerglide Automatic
E = RPO C60 Air Conditioning
R = RPO U80 Rear speaker
S = RPO U73 Rear ant.
T = RPO U75 Power Rear antenna
H = Heater delete

3 = Third Group
A = Rear armrest (500 series sedans)

4 = Fourth Group

F = Remote outside mirror / updated CC group (lighting grp, door guards)

This Corsa has some rare interior options, including a telescoping "wood" stering wheel and it appears to have a rare AM/FM factory Delco radio (not stereo). I hav seen these rare radios sold on eBay for high prices in the range of $700+. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1965-66-Chevro ... SwA2NeYTyy (The sliding lever above the display switches the rotating display between AM and FM).
