 One of the most exotic options ever offered on a muscle car: Olds's 1970 W27 Aluminum Differential. Introduced on 10/10/69 for $157.98 you got some very real benefits: 1. 22 pounds lighter than a cast iron rear - improved handing due to less unsprung weight 2. The aluminum fins on the cover reduced differential temperature by 20 degrees. 3. Held an additional pint of gear oil over a conventional axle.

 The 1969 Chrysler A12 - the only muscle car ever to come with a lift off hood and no hubcaps. This was a SERIOUS muscle car: 4.10 Dana 60 rear with Sure-Grip, either a 4 speed or auto trans, 15x6" wheels with G70x15 Redline Polyglas tires, HD engine internals, HD cooling package and HD 11" Drum Brakes - all standard. What Chrysler did was take a Road Runner or Super Bee, add the 440+6 engine, the fiberglass lift off hood (the only part that was specially made for the car) then added the Super Performance Axle Package minus the front disc brakes and power booster, Hemi 15x6" HD wheels and wide G70 tires (the Hemi cars only had F70s) and skipped the hubcaps in favor of chrome lug nuts You all know the story about Ronnie Sox taking a showroom stock 4 speed equipped A12 Road Runner and recording a 1/4 ET of 12.98. To do this two things happened: they removed the air cleaner assembly and . . . Sox was shifting WITHOUT THE CLUTCH! He was shifting at 5200 RPM. Think about that for a moment - if he had missed a single shift he would have grenaded both the engine and the transmission - in a brand new car, with Chrysler engineers and magazine people watching his performance. Ronnie "Mr. 4 Speed" Sox . . . a legend in his own time
