    Is this 69 roadrunner worth restoring or is she too far gone.

    well. not everyone here on this site wants to spend years restoring a car. if they do, more power to them. That is why I said, depending on the age of the member. of course, a person can spend years restoring the car, and dies of old age. There are two times of life, the time a person spends...

    Is this 69 roadrunner worth restoring or is she too far gone.

    I don't know what age bracket you are in, but old cars take time, and money. So if it were me, I would run away, quickly. I would run to the local credit union and borrow 20k or so at 3% and buy a done car, then go to the local hangout and spend your time having a beer or whatever. You have...

    68 Satellite Value

    ah, don't worry,,, the bottom line now is not Belvedere vs satellite vs road runner, it is about having a B body at all. They all are very valuable,,, and going up by the month. there are those that have, and those that have not one. like 68 Chargers,,, who cares what it came with,,,,

    What year did they fix the 8 3/4 problem

    I took my girlfriend to see Zager and Evans as the backup to the association in April 1970 in Lincoln, Nebraska. Her Father allowed me to drive their shiney 69 Fury III Hardtop that night, F8 Green and green Interior. That was a real concert!

    318 poly to 440

    we are saying pretty much the same thing, we all want to give the guy choices. I actually don"t care for 440's.I know how it goes, and have several. but my favorites are 383's. good power, good mileage, fast revving. less weight overall. and my favorite car after driving mopars since 1968 is...

    318 poly to 440

    it sounds like you have everything, except a 22 inch radiator for a HP big block. I haven't seen a 66 sway bar, that is just something to deal with later. rolling around isn't so bad, what is the hurry anyway? My 69 coronet 383 has nearly every option available, but no bar. it rolls around, but...

    318 poly to 440

    That poly is over 600 pounds, and is easily documented. even 70 lbs difference can be compensated greatly by getting an aluminum manifold for that 440. a 383 with factory A/C weighs the exact same as a 440 non a/c.. also, the bracketry on that old poly weighs more than the same parts on that...

    Engine Serial Number

    Engine Serial Number

    if you are rebuilding, check out the pistons. maybe you got lucky with a higher than standard compression engine. Chrysler didn't stamp all their engines HP when a four barrel application.I believe 8:5 was a two barrel, and 9:5 in the four barrel? I am only guessing, all mine are pre 70 cars.

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    hey R/T I took some time and searched thru the other 2801 transmissions, and you are correct the seq numbers on those are no way a date code, they are way to high to be any 67. so I stand corrected! Your observations were correct. my GTX is 2801541 3353342, so 28 sept 66 would be the 1885th...

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    i thought it would be good to clarify the above post. We agree that July 29 1961 is the first day of the 10,000 day calender. with me and most guys here, we only are concerned with what those first four digits of that sequential number is, Being that is the birthday (day built)of that...

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    after the part number 2801541 on my 67 the next four numbers matches the 10,000 day calender in the blue mopar book. and that calender date is is just a week before the Scheduled production date on my fender tag. everything goes together well, the car was built approx april 25th, 1967. the...

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    I am confused about the conflicting opinion. on a 1967 transmission the first seven numbers e:g 2801541 is the trans number. the next eight numbers are the 10,000 day calendar, and how many were made that day. that should be it. So what are the digits behind that 1962 trans part number...

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    I believe the 61 was a separate tran from the bellhousing still? I am a bit rusty on that. I am using the blue 62 chrysler factory book, so that number should be in there,I will look again in the daylight!It definitely not in the 63 book, all those are start with 2400 what engine is it, and what...

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    I had no issues using it. To be sure I would then also back track thru all the blue mopar parts books from 62-70 I have in order to verify accuracy of the books numbers when needed,,,,The book was accurate,,,Sorry.

    How to decode a 727 transmission?

    look for a white book named chrysler corporation part and casting numbers.it may still be in print. mine is old, but it gets the job done. 10,000 date code 2741 shows Jan 28th 1969 for the trans # 2892090
