Standard layout on dash, options included: Roll bar , hood scoop,
oil cooler, outside exhaust, 9.5" rear wheels, larger fender flares. They would option early cars pretty much anyway you wanted. Later on I think they may have standardized the process when they were making cars for dealers because they were losing money on 427's according to rumor at the time. That led to 428's and aluminum wheels. They also had different front and rear sway bars and Koni racing shocks available for order along with heavy duty rear upper arms with bronze bushings in place of the rubber bushings and a rear end
oil cooler package. I am not aware of any street cars that came with these these options but Ned Would Know. I ordered the rear A arms and Koni shocks after I took delivery so they were not on the car when new.
