The wiper motor indicates that it is 1963 but this could have been replaced.
The car also has a two piece headlining.
The (original?) gearbox also does not have synchro rings but cones.

Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dave

It's a few thousand after mine, so possibly mid 64. It's got the Aussie 8Y engine.

May 1964 was the build date for your car.
