Looks nice....383? Had a poly teen in my 66 that I ended up with from my sister originally bought in mid 66. Had the same hub caps and the dang things wouldn't stay on unless I drove it normally which wasn't any fun. It got a 383 in late 70 and was my first engine swap plus a used set of 69 AMX wheels. It looks nice and straight but it's hard to put a value on it with just a few pics....
 
Do they all have the ABC's stamped on the fender tag?
 
Cut off the "good" part of the fender tag- with the engine code.

Almost has to be a 273 or 318 car or it would have "commando" badges instead of "V8" badges.

I think even the 361 got commando badges.

There you go.

Factory big block almost a stripper.

Pre- Roadrunner, if you will.

I like it.

It looks super clean.

besides no sheet metal support (which this one seems not to need) (although I'd look super close on account of the "too nice" condition of the paint), the next worse thing about 66/67 Plymouth B body cars is keeping a gas cap on them.
 
Seems to me that here in the south that body style must have been better metal or better undercoating, I find more of them in good shape than the 68-70 cars
 
I like it, I'd drive the hell out of it, as is!
 
66/67 B body is one of those body styles that either doesn't hardly rust at all or goes totally.

70-72 monte carlo and 70/71 torino are the same way.

In general, I find 66/67 to hold up better than 68-70 across the board.

you ever see what happened to them in the 60's just after 3 years ? LOL...Rockers ate thru...fender tops with holes so big you could check the tread..quarters ate away...doglegs shot..etc
