Factory 4-Speed-C-Body-Photo-Thread

I like the satin hood on a gloss black car. Agree, shoulda had a super stock scoop instead of super bee/dart units. No heater either.
Travis..
 
No specific data that it is an original 4-spd car, except that it wears the 2 firewall-to-fenderwell braces that seem to only have been used in 67 and 68.
IMO the presence of those braces is pretty compelling that it is a legitimate car.
It's not just the braces themselves, but the whole wheel liner is unique as the autos didn't have the the holes with nutserts
 
my stuff is all part of a auto to 4spd conversion . my 65 custom 880 rag is getting a rb wedge with a a833 four speed . and i'm needing this column for my conversion . but @LocuMob an help you .
 
Took a long drive in the '67 today, perfect day, went to a cruise. Have to say this is my favorite C of all time. Have had or driven a decent number of C's of years 65-73, some were really nice, they were all great road cars but none of them put quite the smile on my face as this incredible machine. I feel lucky to have owned it!

Here is my 1967 Dodge Polara. My wife and I inherited it from her Dad (original owner). Looks and runs great. Having a bit of work done on it now and look forward to driving it once again soon!

This one has a state-issued VIN.
No fendertag shown but does have a fenderwell-to-firewall brace that some 67-68 4-speed C-bodies have.


NOT MINE - 68 Sport Fury fasttop, red-black, 383 H-code 4-speed $28,900 (ebay)

I own this car currently. Purchased about 6 months ago from the man who bought it from the dealership where this picture is from. Although the fender tag is gone, and the vin plate is state issued (due to being stolen and recovered in the mid 1990s), I have a picture book of the restoration of this car. The pictures are dated 1997, and the pictures of the gutted interior shows the console mounts on the floor pans, as well as the 4 speed shifter coming up through the floor and the clutch pedal in place. From the pictures I have, and the firewall to fender well braces, that’s enough evidence for me to say this is a true 4 speed console car.

Besides the 4-speed, this is rare because it was ordered with headrests. So does anyone know if d6, or B0 is the headrest code? or the tachometer code? What are these two codes?


a6=console
b4=bucket seats
h7=fender mounted turn signal indicators
j4=body sill molding (in this case for a 500 pkg)
D9=disc brakes
R1=AM radio
T7=tire option
X1=tinted glass (all)
Y1=black convertible top

I don't have the numbers, but here is a copy of the original order form. As you mentioned, it shows the headrests as well as the tachometer.

@Tall_Texan
Interesting to note that your F-I-L traded a 4-year-old Olds F85 for a full-size convertible, with a semi-firebreathing drivetrain. (I say 'semi' because, although the 383HP is no slouch, the 440 Magnum was available).

Quite a step up.
