The statement that there was nothing special about them is not correct. Those unconverted cars would have had three big items not found on any other non RPO WW3 Sport Coupe:
  1. T/A 6.6 W72 400 (49 state cars)
  2. TH400 transmission (49 state cars)
  3. Grand Prix instrument panel (also available on LeMans GT)

There was one of them in my area that existed until 1993, then was junked. It had the W72 400 with the chrome valve covers, and the GP dash, but no decals, spoiler, or shaker scoop.
