As for your code, you list a "1" in front of the "2", but I have never seen
a number "1" in the accessory code before (first group was not labeled as
such), so that is confusing, to say the least.  Has anybody else ever seen a
"1" in this position before (on a 1965)?

>I will double check that, as I wrote it down several years ago for
reference at the office.  I will not be able to get an email out again until
Monday concerning this.

Some of the guesses for the "4U" code include Wood steering wheel and or
tele-column.  Does yours have either?

>No it does not have these.

As for your "5W" code, remember the seat belts are quite different between
1964 and 1965 models, and I can only vouch for this code as it pertains to
late 1964 models (after front belts became standard).  For instance, I have
3 late 1964 cars (Build dates 04A, 03C, 04D) with "5W" in the tag, and all
had the deluxe style seat belt, but my "early" 1964 convertible (build date
09C) has "5V" with deluxe belts - before belts became standard.

>The belts that were in the car were loose, so who knows if they are indeed
for this car.  I bought the car from the second person to attempt resto.
