I'd never seen this before or since either. Nor, to reiterate, could I find a thing that would help figure out why this happened. ONLY a theory, but in 1940, these cars (with Mercury engines) were not a "mainstay" offering and the "program" to build such cars was in it's first year.
There were anomalies for certain in the numbering system of these special vehicles. Communication issues between assembly plants??? No defined method of numbering???
This particular coupe had been in the same family since new. It was passed to the son when the man that had ordered it passed in about 1972ish.
The documents that were saved was a treasure trove for weird guys like - I love this kind of stuff.

My attempt to read the numbers off the tag in the photo comes up with 1-62028270 which doesn't correspond to any VIN number for these cars. If I read it wrong what does it actually say?
