256-Z = Turquoise custom interior
L-1 = Mariner Turquoise with Ivory conv. top
EDL = E= tinted glass all windows
D= power top
L= fold down rear seat
2EWG = E= AC
W= 2 spd auto
G= console
3M = M= 326ci high output (4 barrel carb)

I like the color comb, 326 HO kind of rare too,

Trans is NOT a PG but a Turbine 300. If you are going to leave it stock then just leave it alone. If going w/more power a T-350 or T-400 is a bolt in. Just have to move trans crossover back.

"Whats the difference???? 2 speed is a 2 speed no??"

If that's the Split-shift converter trans, they're kinda' cool and work Ok but as mentioned aren't for heavy HP.. I had one in a '67 Cutlass and although a 2-Spd they act like a 3-Spd w/ kickdown change into another gear arrived at by a shift-change of pitch in the converter vanes..
