The White Knight was a Charger, the HT had a white Hot Holden, which was 253 3 speed, disc brakes, heater in a Kingswood sedan.

I remember looking at a white 253 HT Kingswood with Gold trim (buckets) built at that time but was a factory Saginaw. I always thought it might have been an optiond up one of these, but obviously not if they were all 3 speeds. I only looked at it for the
