Hello,
well long story short I just picked up a 1968 coronet rt and I posted it on another WIW worth section and I had several people look at the tag and pm me that "something" might be special about the car as it has an SO# that is not the normal St. Louis 1,2, or 3 prefix it is a 7 prefix. I was contacted by an individual that runs a registry for 68 St. Louis B bodies and he has looked at the tag and BS and says he can not figure it out either as it is not listed as a dealer promo or dealer executive car on the BS. But he has only seen 2 other cars that came with this 7 prefix and they were both very highly optioned cars and one was a GTX and another was a Sattelite vert.
But long story short we are stumped as to what this car is as it is a very highly optioned car with a/c, ps, pb, 3 speed wiper, special handling package, tinted windows, hood turn signals, cruise control, 3.23 sg, console with bucket seats, remote mirrors rt and lt, and the thing that makes it really different is it is a bb1 black hardtop with a gold interior and white stripe.
But the car was built on 11-30-67 and was not delivered until march 29th of 68. So this car was off the grid for quite a while, too long to be a dealer executive car or it sat on a showroom for a LONG time. Then with the special So# I was looking for anyone to help us figure out what it might be?? I am restoring the car for myself and would like to get as much info as I can as it is a stunning combo and it is a #'s matching motor, BS, tag and certicard car. I even have the original owners manual. I will attach the BS below and if anyone has any info please let me know. thanks Mike
