When did any of those have a 440 Magnum?
It sounds more like a '69 Dodge Coronet R/T.
But, I don't remember if it had wing windows.
I bought it new, but that was a LONG time ago!
Ramchargers had an option of a 440 until they ceased production of them in the united states. I believe the slantsix, 328, 383, and 460 were also engine options throughoit the years. I say in the usa, because they continued in mexico until 2002.
Front bench seat on my old Tahoe. I liked to be able to stretch out a little on long road trips.
This times 100. Those of us who grew to a decent size absolutely hate the cockpitization of the modern automobile. Even Full size SUVs have little lateral space in the front - have to revert to a minivan if you want decent lateral space and even then the center dash protrudes to I cant sling my knee to the side to avoid cramping.
My 1999 Taurus was the most comfortable vehicle I ever owned (at least until the AC blew on it). Moveable center armrest, no console. Still had cupholders. Plenty of lateral room to stretch your legs on long trips (or to slide over to be closer to your traveling companion when the time was right )
I think you can still get a bench seat on a stripped down Tahoe/Suburban (hard to find though). When I was SUV shopping earlier this year I ran across a couple of ads (out of hundreds) which had front bench, or at least no console. My brother has one on his Silverado and loves it.
I really miss this feature from my old car..... when I turned off the engine and the headlight was still on, it would make a loud continuous beep until it was turned off. New cars nowadays only beep when you open the door. Numerous times the battery died because I forgot they were on as I didn't leave the car. Also happened to relatives where I had to go help them with the jump.
The normal headrests. The kind that don't tilt forward a lot so that it makes your head point down if you sit with your head against the headrest (a new law requiring that extreme tilt was passed in 2010...urged by State Farm & other insurers).
The rugged upholstery (it was a Subaru).
The funky looking upholstery. It has watercolor sweeps of color (lt purple and turquoise) against a med. gray background.
Well, I just "upgraded" from a 92 Corolla to a 93 Nissan pickup. I love that the Nissan has manual window crank handles, because I don't have to worry about the window motors quitting, like they are starting to in the Corolla.
That said, I drove the Nissan to the store this afternoon, and my dog went to the passenger side window and looked at me to open it up, and I realized I couldn't LOL. I had to stop and reach across to hand-crank it. And of course, when I got home to park it, I had to reach across to crank it back up.

Went form a Regal GS to Buick Lacrosse.
