RE: IML: 67 Imperial one of 19- rear a/c, not rear defog

[RandalPark@xxxxxxx]

The cars that I mentioned have rear air conditioning. Believe me, I know the difference. It is hard to say about the car on Ebay. I didn't see a picture of the package shelf. 

I still don't think that there were only 19 rear air conditioned LeBarons in 1967. My '68 LeBaron has it and so did several other '67's that I have seen.

I would say that this option is unusual mainly because it was expensive and quite unneccessary, but it is not scarce.
