I found this car in Nevada desert next to a mobile home in 2005. It was owned by a 19 year old girl. She told me she needed the money to buy a smaller car (Hyundai Excel). Needless to say, when the negotiation started, she said, "let me get my dad here". Finally agreed on a price, and drove it back to Los Angeles. It was then taken apart. Engine sent to Dick Landy Automotive, and the body to Restorations By Julius. As of this moment, the interior needs to be done, and a few minor details. It is a 383 4 speed car with hydraulic roller cam, roller rockers, KB pistons, speed pro rings, eddy heads, victor intake, hi volume oil, water and fuel pumps. The previous owner put in a hemi trans from a 69 Charger R/T, and engine from a 70 Challenger R/T. (I didnt know that till I did research) I used to be a Ford guy until I test drove this car, and I was sold:) PA210041.JPGP5161132.jpgP6170142.JPGPA180124.jpg
 
Looks awesome. I hope to be there someday. Welcome to the site. Lots of great people and a ton of info here.
 
isn't The 4 speed that came in the car , considered a hemi 4 speed ? I always thought an 833 was an 833. Am I wrong ?

you can tell the difference by the input shaft. Hemi 833 had 18 spline input shaft, Non-Hemi had 23 spline
