Don't believe GM ever broke it out by other options, but these are the numbers that have been around for a while
I guess this is one of the 124 Canadian cars.
Although it has a TH400 in it now, it does still have the clutch pedal in the car. Makes people ask all the time if it’s a manual trans in the car.

Yeah that,s great info ! I was just wondering if any one has ever seen more of a break down on model numbers
GM simply did not break it down that far. Both Malibu Classic and Malibu Classic Landaus are 1AW27 cars, so even if they had kept records by series (1AT27 for base Malibu, 1AW27 for classic/Landau), there wouldn't be a split for just Landaus
The Hurst shifter was NOT an option on any of the 78-80 Chevrolet Malibu, El Camino or Monte Carlo 4 speeds. The Chevrolet models came with an ITM manufactured shifter that had a chrome plated round stick profile. The 4 speed Oldsmobiles that I have seen all had the ITM The only A bodies of that time period that came with a Hurst was the 79 Grand Prix and Grand Am models. It was a chrome plated round stick profile with a push in (non bolt on stick). It did not have positive stops like the after markets and it had rubber bushings in the shift arms at the bottom. It was similar in many aspects to the ITM except you did not have to pull up on the stick for reverse like you had to with the ITM.
The Pontiac Hurst used the same linkage, bracket, etc.
