I was doing my usual CL search the other day, and came upon an ad for a shiny orange 69 RR real close to where I live. It's a bit out of my price range and I don't really need another project, but I am itchin real bad to drive something old, so I decided to check it out.
Anyway it's a real RM23 car, but it has a ton of plusses and minuses.
Factory 383 auto floor shift drum brake car.
No fender tag
The good and the bad-
Sweet running fresh 383- no build specs available
Dana 60- no gear info
Nice Weldwheels
Nice black bucket seats- but from an Aspen/Volare
Satellite a/c dash with 120 speedo on non a/c car
Current owner swapped in a 4 speed and pistol grip
Has fiberglass 6 bbl hood
MSD ignition and electric fan
Offy intake and well tuned carb
Locally done ceramic coating on headers (gave shop info)
New bumpers
Nice, clean fresh paint in Vitamin C orange under the hood
Fair to poor fresh shiny paint on the body in Hemi orange (?)
Poorly done quarter patches around wheel wells and lower quarters-
"to cover where big tires were used for racing"
Doors poorly patched in corners
Asking 11K but told me 9.
