Yep, back in the day, someone spent $501 more dollars to get a GTX over a Road Runner (for the 440-4 and wood grain trim???) and then 'saved' $100 by getting the bench seat. A 6-pack RR with buckets would still be $150 cheaper than a GTX! Must have been too mature for a silly horn and cartoon bird!
Base price of '70 Road Runner hardtop RM23 was $3034.00 vs. GTX hardtop RS23 was $3535.00 ($501 difference).
The P3 bench seat was a NO-COST OPTION in the GTX & was NOT available in the Road Runner.
GTX RS23 ($3535.00) + 440+6 ($119.05) + 727 (STANDARD) + bucket seats (STANDARD) = $3654.05
Road Runner RM23 ($3034.00) + 440+6 ($249.55) + 727 ($227.05) + bucket seats ($100.85) = $3611.45
$42.60 difference
Simply, the GTX was in a higher price class. The $43 got you: Woodgrain dash VS. black plastic dash A differenct grill (which would you prefer GTX vs. RR?) Emblems VS. stickers Chrome tail lights & panel mouldings VS. body color & stripe Side stripes STANDARD VS. "dust trail" OPTIONAL Two horns VS. one ** Woodgrain door trim NA in Road Runner ** Wheel lip mouldings NA on Road Runner

How many where the gold color? Any Idea? It looks like a greenish gold to me but my buddy said it was some kind of gold.

And also the 70 amp battery upgrade to power those dual horns and matching bright exhaust tips

The 70 amp/hr battery was part of the $249.55 RR upgrade to 440+6.
I intentionally left out the exhaust tips, some sources list it included w/440+6 on RR & some say my 440+6 GTX shouldn't have them w/N95 & N97. Yet, the fender tag reads N41 N42 N85 N95 N96 N97.
