If that is the original drivetrain? Pretty rare to have 6 cyl. Turbo-Hydramatic in a 68?

I agree, pretty cool , but what would be ordered that would give the car rallye wheels. I figured it would just be ordinary hub caps? Just curious. Morley ps --glad the Blues Brothers did not get this one--being from Chicago and all.!!!

4 piston front disc brakes, I would assume, were responsible for the rally wheels and police caps. Presumably like these London ON Biscayne police cars from 1968.

Great picture. Interesting the Canadian cars had the Corvette style cap . More interesting is the GUN store right across the street.. Way cool. Morley
