Yes I can do that as soon as it gets home. The owner of the car suddenly passed away and his widow is selling it so the registration is currently in motor vehicle limbo land

The car actually spent most of its life in Ontario where you’re located but purchased new in Manitoba

I wish it was a 500, but is just the 440 trim level. It is a Canadian car but definitely not the 318 poly. It’s also possible that the engine has been swapped but current owner of 30 years says the motor is untouched.

That’s the thing, 67 is kind of a swing year. If it was a 66 I’d definitely say it was a 273, 68 would be 318 but I’m unsure where it’s a 67

They are just trying to cover all of their bases by appealing to the next big thing. Personally, I’m not a fan but I think it’s smart on their end. Around here, Harley’s are more popular than ever and a co worker was telling me when he was at bike week in Laconia NH a couple weeks ago, 98% of...

You can put in a 318 but after the first drive or 2, you’ll wished you had gone bigger

It depends on a lot of things.... like how far he will have to travel for work, if he is the kind of guy that will need a truck, will be living at home or moving out on his own... the list could go on and on. But before making any big purchase, I would make sure that I had a solid and secure...
