Thumbs up Door Number One, Two or Three??

I'll admit it!!! But like any good Conservative, I figured a little fact checking and research first. Pretty interesting stuff. The 2 door was built for government and municipal applications like police, government/military transport, correctional facilities etc. (not much of a chance of opening the door and jumping out without a door...). Civilians could special order them, and they were very popular with tradesmen like electricians, plumbers and, not surprisingly, funeral homes.

And it was in these types of special order rigs where many of the high performance big block parts got their shakedown under names like "police interceptor package" or "severe use option".

You know me and station wagons. I'm really looking forward to seeing it "haul"
