I am not a stripes & spoilers kinda guy and would've loved to ordered one of these SD Formulas as a barebone'd, non A/C, 4-speed car!

The stick cars were very rare (and you could not get A/C on them). One of the problems with ordering these cars back when new was that there was very little info on the "no A/C rule" for stick cars. So if you ordered a four-speed SD455 with A/C, the order got kicked back, sat in limbo, or altered to a regular 455 instead of an SD455, without the buyers consent.

Total production was 33 automatics and 10 four-speeds.
