If they try to turn it away they need to be educated...

In the past I've had quite a few buddies with 442's.... And yeah, Joe was Doc Olds' right hand man... These days it seems every 442 or Cutlass has gone the way of the Donk....

I thought I had a guess but zero real knowledge.. The rumor of cars ordered by guys who work the assembly line being able to have options added without any paperwork on the job... How would you relay those added options to the workers on the line without raising any flags? Every station...
