[67hemi]

On FABO I am known as 340john, on FEBO I am 67hemi, and I am new here. I have owned Mopars for over 25 years and most have been B bodies. Most notable were a 69 hemi superbee and a 67 hemi coronet R/T convertible. A few 68 - 70 chargers, a couple coronets and so on.

Do you still own this car?
Is or was it a 4 speed or auto trans?
What was the color combo and options?
What were the options on the car?
Very rare car with no know production figures and the last I knew of, only 4 known to exist, I believe 2 of each 4 speeds and autos.

There is a 67 Hemi GTX ragtop in the Phoenix, AZ. area that has the REAR shoulder belt option, Dark Blue with Dark Blue interior and I THINK an auto trans. There is no breakdown on Hemi ragtops for these cars at all the last I knew of and a total of 680 for all 67 GTX ragtops of any engine/trans combo. With only 196 total 67 R/T ragtops built, it is assumed that the Hemi R/T is much more rare than the sister GTX model.

Welcome!

The 67 R/T convertible was white with a black interior and black top. Four speed, console, dana, road wheels with redlines. The original 440 was junk so I installed the hemi. Sorry...I should have said it wasn't an original hemicar. For the record, my 69 Superbee was an original hemi car, but the r/t rag top and the 71 cuda were clones. The cuda was a V code car with no motor and I had a rebuilt 426 so the decision was a no brainer.

Regardless, it is still a rare car even being an original 440 car.
Do you still have it?

 

[67hemi]

No, the 67 R/T is long gone now. In fact the only B body in my garage now is a 69 Road Runner that I am restoring for a friend. My only Mopar now is my 1970 340 Dart Swinger. I bought the little dart when I was a senior in high school and I still have it 23 years later.
