This record's own overview repeats that the Grand Prix gained concealed headlights and wipers and a standard 350-hp four-barrel 400, with Strato bucket seats and console or a no-cost notchback bench, and that the 376-hp 428 HO was optional; it also states that for the only time a convertible was offered, with the compiled table listing 5,856 convertibles and 37,125 hardtop coupes, 42,981 in all.1,2,3
