R/O Belvedere II, but was lettered with 'GTX' on the quarter-panel
so it would stand out, as well as promote the GTX banner.
Or was it a Hemi GTX, but converted to R/O stature?
Any clues???
Sorry Dick Landy, it is your thread..

Sox's car was an RO. It was rebadged to look like a GTX to promote the GTX's. At that time the only way you could get the Hemi hood scoop was on the RO's plus his car had a bench seat. . At least that is what Ronnie told me at the York, Penn. nostalgia show about a year before he passed away. Maybe someone else could shead some more light on it.
