Agree. It's the little things that complete a car like this. Some won't see these but when you know the possibilities, you look for them. 4 way flasher is one of my favorite little options. Grabbed the one out of my GTO before it left tht country and now it's in my GP

Just an hour to go!
Odd that nobody bought it yet . . . .

So the N30 code lists "Deluxe Steering Wheel". I thought the "Deluxe" was the two spoke one with the clear wheel. Or was that the standard and the 3 rib one is the Deluxe?

Also, as Heybuck pointed out what's up with that huge button in the glovebox? There is the hole for the light button right there. The light, however, could be just tucked inside the hole on the left. Mine is... (Sorry for the crappy picture) I'm also happy to say that mine did come with the flasher. And hood insulation, but that's long gone. (Pieces are still there, along with the clips though)

Remote trunk release, perhaps?

That's where it is on the '63.

Ah... hadn't considered that. (But in my defense, I don't have a trunk on any of my cars......) But that makes sense.

They should have added the button for the glovebox light in that case.

John , do you have a chart that tells the axle ratio for this Bonnie ?
It looks like the code is VH on the Buildsheet

OK, so as I look at that axle ratio chart, I must be missing something. I highlight the 4 spd manual column and the 421 tri-carb column. There is only one row that has an X in both columns. It's the 6th from the bottom. But following that to the left, only the 2+2 column also has an X in it. Not the Bonneville Convertible or Wagon. What am I missing?
