The '63 is certainly nice-looking, but I don't know where he gets that production figure of 587.

According to Setting the Pace, production of the 1963 F-85 Cutlass 2-door post coupe totaled 41,343. That was the largest production of any F-85 or Cutlass style that year.

edit: Nevermind did some more reading and found out this mixture was to maintain the spark knock caused by the turbo charger.
