63 Valiant Signet convertible
New to me 63 Signet, my first convertible! A little rough but solid. Original 3-on-the-tree car, I've got a nice 318 and discs to make this a nice driving car.
VIN:
143254xxxx
Can anyone help decode this fender tag?

B1 - Valiant
D4 - premium
Y5 - convertible
T7 - ?
R3 - leather seats!
M5 - ?
3 - ?
P B - body color black
N P - upper door frame color ruby red
Wondering what the original colors were. It seems to be black, but the floor pan is all painted red. Maybe 3BP meant two-tone black and red? Was there a two-tone option for Valiant in 63? Would they really paint the door frames red on an otherwise all-black car?
