Matt,
That 76 808 I had from up in Sac area had the rear window/drip rail thing going on. Basically I'm guessing the late cars came without the stainless trims over the windows. The rail where the stainless clips on is shorter (stainless hangs over ends). I looked like **** and it's probably a cost thing.

it might have had an engine transplant because switching between rotary series was and is still a simple task.

a friend of mine has a 12a powered REPU, except we both know it didn't come with a 12a. maybe he simply didn't know

YEap all RX3SP were 12A, but most people that have one will go 13B, or keep it original with the 12A. Mine is a 13B, with disk brakes all around. SP package was extra when you order them. Just saw a nice blue one with out the SP Package Only came out in 1977 and 1978.
