The 1964-1967 Opel Kadett parts Book (Effective may, 1971) has a list of start and finish Chassis numbers in the front pages.

1966 Model 39 2 Door Station Wagon Starting Chassis No. 39 0651286

1967 Model 39 2 Door Station Wagon Starting Chassis No. 39 0957662

Your Chassis No. 39 0832642 is around mid-way between so would have ben produced in mid-production year (306,376 between the numbers and yours 181,356 in from the start). Plus Opel shut for most of July for Summer Holidays so less were produced in the second half of the Model year ... say around March/April 1966 for the production date of your particular Wagon.

Be interesting if Opel reply to you and we can compare my estimation with actuality
