Hello everyone,
Name is Brady and made a deal to leave the GM world behind and join Mopar. Traded my ‘66 Chevelle 300 for ‘69 GTX 440 4spd. She needs love but the bones are in decent shape. These SRT8 seats got to go.

Welcome to FBBO from Connecticut. A GTX is better than a she vell.

Even with the seats, you got the better end of the trade.

Agree Mopars are expensive , also be prepared to work a little harder to locate parts as Chevy parts are everywhere! Mopar stuff is like old Pontiac, Buick and Caddy stuff.. You got a nice car and welcome aboard you’ve come to the best Mopar site on the net.

One time, I rebuilt a 727 for a Chevvy friend who was building a '39 Dodge hot rod. He commented that he could build 2 Chevvy's for the cost of doing 1 Mopar. I replied, "Yeah, but then, all you have is 2 Chevvy's!" .
