This car has been built for street use, and has a non matching numbers
engine/transmission.
It has the 440 CID, but bored 060 over with higher compression ratio pistons,
a hotter cam, and mildly ported heads. On the top is the famous 6-Pack,
3 Holley 2bbl carburators. Ignition is Mopar Performance electronic silver box.
Exhaust goes through 1 7/8 headers into dual 2 ½ inch exhaust pipes.
I'm guesstimating horsepowers in the region of 450.
Transmission is the TorqueFlite 727, and rear end is 8 ¾ inch SureGrip, 3.23:1.
Interior is all original, including AM/FM radio and of course the Tachometer works.
The body has now been taken down to bare-metal outside, and everything is taken out of the car. Sand/mediablasting of the rest of the body will take place sometime this spring. Front fenders, doors, hood and trunk-lid will be stripped of paint manually.
Time-schedule: Finished on its 30.th birthday, 8.th march 2001........
