Thanks guys

Way back in the '70s, I bought a loaded '69 with a rosewood wheel. It had an N555xxx VIN, 12A body tag. At that time a bud owned an SS-RS N545xxx VIN 11C tag, had a walnut wheel. So late November-early December 1968. Possible both were used for a short time.

An 03C build [Van Nuys] would definitely have a rosewood.
