The lower dash shelf (also used by Ford in their early '70's Mavericks & Mercury Comets) tells me that the green & white interior is from a Gremlin or Hornet.

Yes! The top pic is a Gucci Hornet! :shock: Now there are 2 words I never thought I'd use together!

What about the bottom one, Bill?

Cheers,
Ed

Nope. It's an Oleg Cassini Matador!

In 1971, what Model(s) were offered from Mercury that had "GT" in their model name?

You got the answer half correct in each of your answers.

The answer is the Comet GT (really an appearance package with a 302-2V) and the Cyclone GT.

New question.

1967 & 1968 full-size Mopars (Sport Fury, Polara, Monaco, 300... a/k/a C Body cars) when you ordered a 440 HP with a four-speed, other than the transmission and transmission related parts, what other drive-line change was made vs. an automatic car and what body/chassis part was added that was not found on an automatic transmission C Body?

Which Dana?

A part was added to the body/chassis of any body style full-size Mopar that had a four speed. What part was added that was not installed on an automatic full-size Mopar? This is a tough one. Hint, the change is in the engine compartment.
