As we all know, the tow package frames are no secret, but besides the hump straps, what exactly came on the cars vs a standard car? And what exactly was the package officially called? I've tried searching online, but the term "tow package" always brings me back here.

i was always told the hump straps were only 73-5 limiteds and ninety eights, but not all. i had a 75 electra 225 limited with no straps.

Some Electra 225s had them as well. And I've had 2 people swear they have seen a unicorn and found a Poncho with a Tow Package.
I find it weird how little information there is on these cars. If you Google "Camper Special" followed by whatever flavor of 70s truck you like, you will find all kinds of information of what makes those trucks different(usually twin piston calipers up front, stiffer springs, sway bars, bigger axles, etc...) from a standard truck.

I've never seen one either, only heard people talk about them. I've never been able to figure out if they were just being sarcastic or not. |

Lesabres and Delta 88s...... They were rumored to be seen in ‘76 models too where their bigger siblings (98s, Electras, and Limiteds) ended in ‘75... Now, what about the Rivys???  |
