I'm going outside of the box and guessing 1963 Grizzly.  I've had people make mistakes about the model but never about a leather grip so I'm thinking Cub or Grizzly and guessing Grizzly.

It's like the anticipation and wondering what's inside while waiting to open Christmas presents....

Hobow- I like the way you think.I thought the same thing with the leather grip mentioned but figured if it says Kodiak on it then it must be a Kodiak.I thought maybe someone added a leather grip to it.That and that serial number sound like some I've seen on some Kodiaks I've owned.Haven't owned alot of Grizzlys from that era to compare to. A '63 Grizzly is a possiblity if it turns out NOT to be a Kodiak.
 The suspense is killing me!

Hmm.. I didnt consider a Griz because in Chuck's first post he said it was a Kodiak.
I'm leaning 61

The suspense is getting to me too John, I can only imagine how it is for Chuck!  I went with the odds as far as production colors and features go.  You and Bill may be onto something, I remember an old thread that mentioned two factory built 61 Kodiaks along with a 64 (that was sent back for one?) surfacing that appeared to have factory leather grips.  I hope that you guys are right because it will be a cool bow if factory.

I'm sure this is only fun because we're not the ones watching for the UPS truck...
