While I understand what your point is here, if you look at the internal Chrysler work order where it says "The cars are to be programmed as regular Dart GTS with code 62 383 engines..." I could see where the body plant might have included the 383 emblems. I know if I was wanting to drive one of these on the street back in the day, I certainly would have wanted the 383 emblems on there! I suppose it's possible that the Mr. Norm dealership removed the emblems on some or most of the cars, either due to their marketing desires or personal customer preferences [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] </div></div>
Bill,
Very well said [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] I agree 100%.
