IMO a concours resto is the wrong approach on this one, as some of you have said. I would graft in some patch panels, paint it, and clean the rest of it up. I think you could get everything done and avoid going into the red.

Weren't the '66 Hemi still solid lifters back then? i can hear that beast now.:drool:

I remember my friends 68 Coronet R/T and my 69 Super Bee 440/6 pak, those starters whining and at idle sounded like a coffee can full of rocks! This would be a good one to clean up,make mechanically sound, bolt on some 4.10's and slicks and go have some fun!

JeezeLouise.....I WANT that in the worst way!!!!!!:burnout: Out of the 66-67 styles, I like the Plymouths better than the Dodges. That right there should be in my shop. Problem is...no shop to have it in right now.:frown: I bet firing up that elephant through those squished headers would sound like a overweight flute player!
Cheers Dave |
Dave you would be the perfect guy for this car!

Growing up there has been a prostreet barracuda that was always at the local car shows and across the top of the radiator support it said Don’t fondle the elephant!

----Had two Hemi Satellites over the years and loved them both. They were great for cruising with buds as they had a huge interior. Tall front seat guys never even had to move the seats forward.......Bill S

Dave, from the looks of it I don't think it would hurt it to sit outside for a while. You could get your shop built and then work on this thing.

True.... true. I do know a little about this car since I'm in negotiations for another car and this is very similar to what I'm negotiating the negotiations on the other car for...er.... something like that.:hmmm:
Its owned right now by a flipper. No big deal, but he's a tad off on the asking price right now. I really dig it though. Mechanical resto and drive it! Cheers Dave |
