A vinyl top was also available on a Barracuda, perhaps a little later in the 65 model year.
Also, not meaning to high-jack this thread, but I have never been able to find out how a person could order a 8 3/4" for his or her A-body. Looking over the excellent information posted by 64_Barracuda, I see no reference to a heavy duty rear end option. The 8 3/4" rear may have been included in a trailer tow package, but that package could only be had with A/T. What about a manual trans?
Anybody know?
I could never see where a particular rear axle design was listed. As far as I can tell, rear ends were just listed by axle ratio. The 7 1/4, 8 3/4, and 9 3/4 all had different ratios. I also can't figure where the Sure Grip/ non Sure Grip codes are.
