[63larkcustom]

I just received the production order for Lucy. There is an option that I cannot figure out. its calling out option number 80 conv group. I'm not sure what that is. Can anyone advise? Lucy is a 63 Lark Regal 63S1668.
Thanks,

Bob,

Is the left front tire tracking to the left or is it just the angle of the picture?

Per Fred Fox in the Feb 99 TW...

Option 80 is a "Convenience Group (Standard)" and included right sun visor, rear ash tray, cigarette lighter, automatic dome light switches, and rear arm rests. Costs $15.95. For an extra $5.47 both sun visors in this group could be safety padded.

(There are two other option 80 "convenience groups" One marked "heavy duty for 4 dr sedan and wagon at $16.25 and one marked "heavy duty" for a 2 dr sedan at $15.00. It doesn't look like the items included changes.

The "Standard" would be a F2, Y2, or P2 model. The "Heavy Duty" would be a F3, Y3, or P3 model.

Lucy looks a lot like my Daytona. We pulled the rear glass out today. All the side trim is off now and 95% of the body work is done. Today was the first time we touched it in quite a while.

It's gettin' there; slowly but surely.

You refer to your car as a "Regal." Are you sure about that? I do not believe that that option code would apply to a Regal. What model does the build sheet call the car and what is indicated on the body number plate?

the body number is 63s-y4 body number 291.. if i'm not mistaken, the y4 calls out the regal model. Anyone care to help?
