Does his business still exist? I do remember the guy saying the best thing that could happen for 60’s-70’s Mopar muscle cars is to crush all the 318 and other similar cars that could be cloned. Probably, no is… the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard a car guy say.
They certainly weren’t perfect! 60’s and 70’s Ferrari guys say almost nothing from the Ferrari factory will fit. The cars bodies were basically all hand built, and no real close tolerances were adhered to.
Aftermarket add on. Some OG Muscle Cars came with a hood mounted tachometer option. Most notably the GTO and Firebird. Also the AMC Machine, and Buick GSX.
My understanding is you could have lights or reflectors in ‘68-‘69. And in ‘70, both were required. I like the ‘68 style that was used on Plymouth. The Chrysler and Imperial had little squares. They looked nice as well. GM had some kool ones in ‘68-‘69. Pontiac had the arrow, firebird, and GTO...
They aren’t getting any cheaper. And while not “correct”, it’s also a Charger Daytona hood. There is a carbon fiber version out there… I can only imagine how unaffordable it is.
A Superbird that was sold new at Lansdale Chrysler-Plymouth was Corporate Blue with the black vinyl top and black headlight masks when new. When restored about ten years ago the owner did both in white. I thought it looked like ****. :D
I used to joke with buddies back in the 80’s when you’d find these cars in the boneyard… Chrysler must have gotten a deal with government on surplus green paint from the Nam war, because it seemed like there was 9 green cars for every one that wasn’t. :D
