This 64 Gt has a vin number from US,but it has an rare option..that are rarely seen on american cars..and it was imported to Norway in 64. 7985989-1491024_10152137233446147_1109599157_n.jpg (75 downloads)

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it. JB Rhinehart, Realist A-Body's RULE!

Not quite sure what they built it Spain as I don't have a clue which side ov the road they drive in there?!?

I am not into 63/64 but later on the VINs on the dash start with an "8" which has a flat top. That indicates empty body. Meaning they did not know what kind of model (ie Dart GT or GTS) it will be and which engine it will get. Carsten

Prob Dart front/Valiant rear with Valiant name till '68 when they renamed it the Polara, although I think the cheapest version was the Valiant for a year when they phased it out.
