My thoughts are cutting the whole quarters off up to the roof seam, door jambs to tail light off the 64. Not doing this to resale at all, in fact if I know I’m dying I’ll crush it first. Just a [censored] twin to my other 64 Savoy

Stories of the body line assembly guys putting together three door cars to see if anyone in management would catch them as they went down the line. Supposedly The K cars were the easiest to make into a three door, because they were computer designed.
