CGY 2B = 1964, but probably a cherished transfer. A lot of mid-60s US stuff in UK (and particularly when captured in London scenes) seems to have been registered with single number suffix plates, as if that was standard practice for distributors press/demo fleet.

Starfire convertible, the most expensive Olds you could buy in 1965. 370 horsepower from a 425 cubic inch V-8, and acres of class. :love:

I don't see any,but I did notice it looks like it has '66 Pontiac wheel covers? Starfires 'did' usually have very nice wire wheel covers with two-bar 'spinners' on them,and they might've had to swap them out for it to be 'legal'? (Just as I recall US Made cars sold at one time in France that have a hood ornament had to have them removed...supposedly a 'safety issue'?)

Was there any CDN assembly? If so it would be a more probable source for UK supply. Because of the designer registration, I'm fairly sure this came from the official importer's demo fleet, which in the 1960s was Lendrum & Hartman in Hammersmith, London.

I have noticed this too - it may have been because single/dual number suffix registrations were easier to fit on the square plates that US cars needed due to the license plate slots being designed for smaller US plates.
