105.xx

[<JHertzman@xxxxxxx>]

In AD7-060 David Mericle straightened out the C-pillar badge question
comprehensively (except that the 'C'serpent was evidently used on other cars
beyond the Super-) but goes on about type numbers, writing 
"A Ti will have the number 105.08 (floor shift) or 105.14 (column shift), and
Ti Super will have 105.16, real Giulia Supers will have 105.26, and so on...
There are many more arcane tipo numbers for the Giulia Sedan family, like RHD,
CKD, Promiscua, and so forth-" 
Yes, but not actually all that many, as in every case the RHD and CKD shared a
single type number, and the Promiscua did not have a unique type number,
perhaps reflecting its origins as a 105.26 Super altered after fabrication by
Colli or others. There were in fact just thirteen type numbers for the Giulia
Sedan family, three of them 115 numbers. That is, if Fusi and d'A-T are
correct.

Those of us who have tried to decipher the exact distinction between a 105 and
a 115, which we usually think of as part of a logical linear (chronological,
sequential) progression (101, 105, 115, 116, 119, 162, 164) may wish to ponder
that the Montreal (1971-77) was a 105 (fairly understandable, given the
platform derivation) but the 115.33 was the 1967-'69 33 Stradale, which had
very little in common with the other 115 cars, and preceded the next 115 (the
Giulia 1300 Super) by three years.
