Gunslinger Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Built for Raymond Loewy? That was about the time frame when he purchased one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't presume to take msg's thunder but you are correct...RQB1662 was the first to use the new booster and master cylinder so RQB1661 would have been almost the last to use the 4-bolt master cylinder and booster...RQB1665 also received the 4-bolt. It must have been built out of sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfg Posted November 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) r1lark and Gunslinger are on to something here!.....Not only was the change made cocerning the master cylinder mounting on (or about) RQB1661, also high back bucket seats, AMC steering column, Stude rear brakes changed to GM type, etc!
