dum azz me. back in my junkyard days, i crushed a 60 300F that had those seats. however, the long rams [plus all the exhaust parts including the manifolds] and the dual point tach drive distributor rest comfortably in my garage. Well, at least you didn't do it the other way around!

the colonnade style GM intermediates from 1973-1977 had swivel bucket seats as an OPTION I've had mid 70's Monte Carlos and Grand Prixs that had swivels too.

'60 dart phoenix definitely had them along with a oval (rounded-off rectangular) steering wheel and probably the most modernistic dash I can recall Just for the record Dodge NEVER offered the square steering wheel that was a Plymouth thing. Known as the “aero” steering wheel and available on 1960-61 Plymouth models. There is an exception to this. The Dodge models manufactured for Canada used Plymouth interiors including the steering wheel. So it’s possible to show up on a Dodge. Though that’s a completely new thread as the Canadian specific Dodge, Desoto, Chrysler and Plymouth model lines during the FL years were a combination of many different cars that didn’t exist in the US market. And as a side note if you think e-body rimblow steering wheels are expensive, the prices on the aero wheels are even higher !

Very interesting about the rounded off rectangular steering wheel. For a fact in Nor Cal in 1983 I had a red w/ white trim Dart Phoenix (believe 383) with white / red interior with the squared off rectangle steering wheel. It was somewhat odd and difficult to drive on curvy roads. It's etched in my mind and is identical to the blue one you posted, yet was red and clear. Kind of wished I kept that car as it was probably the most outlandish styling I've seen, and huge also. i have two of those rectangle wheels hanging in my garage, but they aren't the colored/chear version[s]. both are black. one is from a 60 imperial, and the other is from a 64 300. they do take a bit to get used to when going down the road.
