My former car, 1960-titled but produced in 1959- BN7434, had disc brakes, 3000 engine and manifolds, and 100-6 badging. Then I made it worse by adding the 3000 on the tail, but it definitely had a 100-6 badge on the grill and a 100-6 horn button. Confused me for a long time after I bought it in 1982. You can kind of see it here.
