I don't want to hear that.... I thought It was gonna be getting better..... :lol:

Different... I'm sure it was ordered that way, not a standard build.. But I wonder if it required a paint/trim waiver... Had a buddy with a 70 Charger that was bright Yellow with a tan interior & a green top... Special ordered and require a waiver... Documented on the broadcast sheet... Dealers...

Doing what you do gets harder as the years go by..... Hoping you remain healthy for many years to come..... Had a friend that was an excellent metal man, never used plastic filler, metal finished everything.... Was still doing it at 90 years old..... Unfortunately we lost him last year... Then...

That is known as a Shart...

Not gonna touch the rocker arm debate... Both posters above have legitimate answers... But... On the oil leak... I've seen three Hemis that leaked from the oil return passage area of the head gasket... A smear of 518 anaerobic sealer solves the problem.. The other issue is the intake...

Pretty sure all the cars in post #2 are 17's.... Before you commit to 16" wheels take a hard look at available tires & realize they are going the way of the Dodo Bird.... Extinct....

Full disclosure.... I had no idea they were different till I got my 68 Coronet...I'd always played with 69/70 & 71 stuff.. Bought it off a guy who told me the whole story of coming home from Vietnam & getting the car & the girl.... Thirty some years later both were showing a few battle scars...
