Sweet 62!

I don’t do Facebook. I can’t see it.

Kern you are probably already aware this, but you will have to relocate the spring perches. The Polara housing has the perches at 47.3" inches (center to center) apart. Your Charger has it's at 44.0". That being said for anyone else doing this mod, Dodge 1/2-ton pick ups of this same era use...

Where in Virginia? I’m in Virginia. I Used to own a 68 Coronet 440 Superbee Clone. I know this car well.

Nice. What does it run at the track?

As a stage and concert lighting designer...I agree. Hence my comment about good optics on the Hellas. The HID/LED sources I use are brighter, and the Hella optics make sure to put it in the right place downrange. The spread is even, it doesn't blind oncoming drivers, and the spill to the sides...

As @dfrazz said, there are multiple threads on this topic. Do a search. I don’t recommend LED for the headlights, I recommend @Crackedback plug and play wiring harness with voltage regulators. Cheaper than LEDs, and works just as good if not better. Plus it retains all factory appearances to...

Welcome to FBBO from Ontario, Bret. Nice '62 Savoy. These '62 B-bodies, that nobody used to like are getting very popular. My first B-body was a '62 Dart 2-door sedan, purchased in 1967 for $500. I quickly swapped the tired 313 Poly, 3-speed for a 383, 4-speed. Thanks for the picture.

First letter is R. The seventh digit is 7 for St Louis plant. They only made b bodies there. Does it have a fender tag?

Truth!!

Thanks for this info! I have heard good things about this service from multiple people, and no one has had anything bad to say about them to me so far. Sharing your experience is much appreciated!!!

Let's hope some of your luck will rub off on me! No matter how good of a deal you get on one of these cars, you are most likely going to be upside down to some degree, and I can accept that. It is precisely that "fun factor" you mentioned that I am looking for. I think I told the story that...

Oof.

Hahaha!

Yeah; Belvedere GTX with 440 Super Commando would be RS23L7.
