10 = LH Drive and Standard transmission
007017 = serial production no. (early build)
well, thank you. (i think he also put 300se/c, but i wasn't sure if c meant coupe, cabriolet, or?)

and, for the record, i think the coupe is probably one of the best looking models ever made, and the engine/standard trans combo makes it even better.

p.s. since you seem to know a great deal, a few further questions??

internet sources ( with grain of salt) suggest production of

1) some models up to 1967? 1968?
2) some models with v-8's? 3.5's and 4.5's ? (i have my doubts)

thanks.
