POP says it had a BU rear. Maybe JL8 was added after the original order. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

The JL8 brake package was only available from Feb '69 through May '69 and this car was built after that. It must have had a service package, over-the-counter, 4-wheel disc rear axle.

My guess is that the JL8 rear end that was in the car was an over the counter unit... None of the paperwork I have has anything to support that the car was built as a factory ordered unit.
