We were doing a list of D500s only. I was looking for actual car examples not just literature.

Tom,
I suppose you said it was poorly optioned because it didn't have PS or PB. Aside from that it is nicely optioned. It is a Coronet 2 Dr HT but is coded as a custom coronet with a gray interior. Deluxe two tone paint. Roof, fins and lower are heather green with a glacier white saddle.3.36 to 1 axle, shipped by rail, torqueflite, heater/ defroster, back-up lights, left os mirror, day/ night mirror, music master radio with front mount antenna, handbrake warning light, map and glovebox lights, variable speed wipers, w/s washer, vanity mirror, air foam rear seat, stone shields, plastic steering wheel, spinner w covers, front bumper spuds, carpet, D500 engine, undercoating, 8.00 X 14 wsw tires
