Very true; I worked for a guy in 1956-57 who ordered a new Olds every year
with a Pontiac interior. His wife hated the Olds interiors he said and he
had to pick the cars up at the factory, as I remember. Did this for many
years, until his wife was killed in one.
Special orders were common in those days. Some could drive the restorers and
judges nuts.
