    What I have and future plans

    I'm guessing it adds $1500 to $2500 to value the grabber hood assembly. It's a cool and functional design.

    What I have and future plans

    I know that mind image. Just wrong. Lol. I bought the car 6 years ago because the price reflected that it's not ever to be a $60k-$80k original. Thus open to build options. (Which is what we did back in the day. Numbers matching? Meant nothing. Who knew?) I passed on a 540 hemi built by our...

    What I have and future plans

    Thank you. The camel tan I wasn't sure about when buying the car. But once I looked at it in person? It works with the F8 green. But I'm not sure it would work if colors were flipped? (Interior green with that tan body color.) But it is what it is.

    What I have and future plans

    Nice. My F8 440 GTX has 18 spline A833. Dana 3.54:1. And mine not even close to number matching. In fact the split bench seat I'm pretty sure was not available to GTX? But VIN, Tag and title says RS23. So I lovingly call it my '69 GTXish. (Just to Mopar crowd.) Lol. Would love to have your...

    Best oil for 440.....

    I am talking adding too. At about 500 I'm about 1/2 quart low. So I throw in a pint of the additive stuff.

    Best oil for 440.....

    VR1. 10-40. I add some Lucus oil zinc additive. It may be an over kill. But I got burned on the "Zinc removal."True it was with a flat tappet mechanical cam. Which is more susceptible to sudden wear issues regarding loss of zinc additive. Than hydraulic flats. So call me "Mr. Paranoid." But I...

    70 Bee with or without Go Wing???

    I also have to agree. It looks a little "Bench like" for lack of a better description. A-bodies certainly can support more body mods. A great example is the SS scoop. It just looks wrong on any other body style. (And yes, others have tried. Including poor Chevy boys who try to "Sexy up" their...

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    I'm guessing those 80s tires stood no chance? Lol.

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    That is true. But mostly talking the manufacturer differences. I'm also a firm believer that both Plymouth and Pontiac carried their parent companies thru what I consider the greatest manufacturer performance wars in US automotive history. The 1960s. Ending with. "And today. What was the thanks...

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    I graduated in '79. These cars were then 10+ years old. And the only cars we could afford. The rich kids drove their newer vettes and Trans Ams. My older GTO and other muscle era cars that passed in and out of my garage would rain havic to their world. Lol. Fun times.

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    I would love a '69 Hemi GTX 4-speed. But I can't seem to find that spare $200k I had? Lol. If it shows up? The hunt begins.

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    So do I. But GTO tops for me on GM options.

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    Nice. It's my 2nd favorite car. 1st Gen GTO. (That high school GTO of mine. was a '66.) When I got my first GTX? I never looked back to GM. But I do keep an eye out if a GTO comes along that is too good to pass up. Lol. Today? While driving my 2nd GTX. The #1 question I have to explain. The...

    1970 B-bodies back in the day

    His Wildcat stood no chance. Then he would change the rules. Say. "Lets start at 60 mph." I said "That's crazy fast in a public highway." I bought my first Mopar from him. A '68 Satellite auto 383 4-barrel. (Too small for his tastes.) I got my 389 GTO 4-speed going at same. And that was a...

    anyone in Phoenix, Surprise AZ that knows this car?

    Yeah. Something happened in past that put on the path? But if underneath is solid. Runs well and can be enjoyed? $35k starting isn't a terrible price. (Especially these days) I would bring ramps. Drive it up so you can at least flash light inspect underneath. Since it's not silly money...

    5 or 6 speed transmission for 69 Superbee

    I agree. And high HP builds need less. 1/4 is over before you get thru all them gears. I'm wondering if Pro Stock goes back to 4-speeds? Pro Stock must use manual. Pro Mods certainly wouldn't consider 5 speeds. Most are 2 speed Power Glides. I'm my opinion. The only advantage of a 5 speed for...

    $35k?

    But is yours back to new? Took my Plymouth over 50 years. Christine was right shitters. Just have to believe.

    $35k?

    The market certainly has changed. I bought my GTX coming up to 4 years ago for $21k. A very decent driver quality car. (But starting to show some trouble areas.) I would rate car a solid 3. (A step up of the orange RR condition, but not a #2 condition car as of today.) Stock performing 440 non...

    $35k?

    Reputation certainly goes a long way. And I believe adds value. I would like to see what the hammer price concludes. (But I also understand that it is between seller and buyer. So both should agree that posting is ok.) This car is not a bad comparison mark?

    $35k?

    Then how else to discuss? If you have a better solution? Please, by all means post.
