What difference if any is there between the base, landau, and sport models with the 305? Ive always just assumed mine was a base model but when looking at other base models I noticed at least 2 differences and im unsure if they are just options or if they meant anything at all. The base models ive seen have a dash clock and mine has a factory tachometer and mine also has factory AC although the condenser and all that was missing when i got it

Landau should have a half vinyl roof, fancy interior. fancy gauge cluster

Sport no vinyl roof fancy interior. fancy gauge cluster

and then you had one with a stainless trim roof. Very rare.

mine has the factory tach as well... were is the wire that hooks up to the cap? i cant find one.
Should be a green wire in the wiring harness someone may have cut it back or off my tach is seized so i installed an aftermarket one
