IDing a Streamline Empress

[zudiefonda]

I'm having trouble identifying a Streamline Empress. The number by the door is C8343, made in Thorntown, Indiana. Can anyone help me with the year?

I'm in the same boat as you at the moment. We've found a Countess made in Thorntown, Ind. which has the serial C8284 which is very close to your s/n. I was told by one expert that the 'C' indicates that it was a 1964 model, yet another expert says that he doesn't think that's correct.

Have you made any progress on the year yet?
