I had to bump this as I have almost the same situation. I have headers on the car now, but the way the spark plug wires run they're constantly getting burned on the headers. It doesn't seem to matter how a route them they just look funny. I'd like to put stock manifolds on it and be done with...

So we're right back to square one...technically. Doesn't 20k seem a little steep for a VIN and a few A12 pieces?

696pack, and others: Thanks for posting that as it is exactly the questions I was asking myself, but didn't have the inclination to write it all down. In my heart, I would always feel unsettled that I took the 'good parts' from a too-far-gone car and and put them on a useable, similar...

I'm not sure if I'm asking an ethical question or not, but I have a 69 440 series that is original B5 blue with white vinyl top. Now, it is painted white and needs some lipstick, but it is a solid car. (I have pictures posted here.) If I was to buy this A12 car and use mine to help...

How can people NOT know it exists?! It has the worlds biggest Moose! :rolleyes...

Saskatchewan is the rectangular province, in Canada, that's nestled between Alberta and Manitoba.

I know I'm in the minority but I have never really liked the fastback 67-69 Barracuda's. I have always really liked the notchback version. A 68-69 notchback 340 4 speed would make me fall asleep with a smile on my face. You just don't see them very often.

How much would it cost to get this car to Canada? Never considered this before, but if the logistics worked out... Is it tricky getting a car across the border? How expensive to get a car trucked up? Maybe a fellow just drives it back!

Yes, I have a Coronet 440 series, that I probably overpaid for just so I could make it into an M-code car. Thats' the other thing; the seller knew that guys are looking for "440 series" cars to make them into A12's so he wasn't budging on the price very much. Since that's what I wanted, I had...

I bought mine knowing that I wanted to make it an F6 "tribute" car. I understand the need for the hood, carb/intake, rad, air cleaner, etc...but I started thinking about the things that "normal" people don't notice -- a missing Dana rear for example. Here's the thing: Do I want to put...

Why is the air cleaner so much? There isn't a reproduction?

Well, I have good news and not so good news. I found some more numbers and on the engine id "pad" near the intake has the following: 7 T-440 8 16 2 X The number on the block is 4006630. Which, unfortunately, tells me it's a 1978 block (I was hoping for the good crank.) The only number I...

I'm guessing that without a VERY specific description and/or photo's, you won't get many replies. I tried this when I started and couldn't get any response. Since there were no introductions, I'll say welcome here!

This is the kind of stuff that keeps my faith in humanity. THESE are the simple actions that change everything...

I keep reading that about the Lynch Road plant. What was the reason they did things so differently?

696pack & 69runner, thanks for responses! Saves me a ton of time. Now I can go out to the garage and start sanding.....:grin:

Well, I decided not to buy my 70 Coronet back. I found out the hp block has long disappeared and I realised that the 69 Coronet I found has a little more potential (opinion only). I'll miss my old car, but I'll continue on with my plan of an A12 tribute. You know, something no-one has seen...

It's been painted white -- and not that well. I took these pictures right after it ran out of gas on the test drive!

It looks like it did have a vinyl roof at one time as it has the trim pieces seperating the roof at the body line. The car has a 440 in it, but it seemed a tad soft, so I'm guessing that's the gears and the rear. I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy it as it came into the world the same day I...

The bottom line has "E44". As far as I can tell it's a blue-on-blue 318 car. On the bottom, above the number "B27708", there is a stamped sideways "D".
