respecting your elders

An elderly gentlemen stopped the other day to ask about looking at my duster. Of course I was more than happy to show him my car. He then tells me the story of how he ordered from the factory a 1970 plum crazy 340 car. Says when the car arrived, it was a six pack car from the factory. Told me the dealership tried to replace it with a 4-barrel and he said no, leave the six pack. Said the factory made 10-11 and sent them randomly to people who ordered cars......also looked at the rear decal on my car, and said his said 340 six pack! I stood silently and did not say a word. When I show him my hurst shifter, I asked what color the ball was on his car and he said it came with a T handle. Again the man was about 80 and insisted this is how it came from the factory!

As loosie goosie as the factories were, anything is impossible. there have been examples of "1 of not should have been".
