 Just
like the 1964 31 series Cedric, the 1964 Cedric Special featured the new
timber veneer dashboard. The new dashboard has a timber veneer facia, and
features a new wide instrument binacle with a long 'bar graph' style speedometer.
The timber dashboard facia consists of three seperate sections (glove box
lid, radio section, and instrument binnacle) that are a cast alloy material
with a chrome plated raised edge. The timber veneer, which is real timber,
is bonded to these alloy sections.
It has a new grille design, with a gold Cedric Star emblem
in the middle and seperate gold letters above the star spelling Special.
The side badges say Cedric and Special. On the boot lid on the left side
there is a 2800 badge, and on the right it says Cedric Special. There is
a 2800 badge on the side of the car at the back, just above the side strip.
The tail lights are the same as the previous model, except
that the reflectors under the tail lights are now rectangular.
The 1964 model continues to use the K series 2825cc 6 cylinder
engine, and is now available with a 35 series Borg Warner 3 speed automatic
transmission.
The 1964 Cedric Special was in production from September
1963 until September 1964, when it was replaced by the updated Mark III
version. |
