In 1968, the New York Taxi Commission ordered '135' Belvedere's with a
318, that was retro-fitted with a 4-Barrel, and Dual-Exhaust with 'special'
stainless steel shields inserted between the muffler's and under-carriage
for noise-reduction.

Most likely, to haul the 'Fat' taxi riders in New York.


They were listed as 'special order' 240 HP {Taxi/Livery Engines].
