Re: 409 Parts Wanted
 

I kinda hate to upstage him with pic of his car but he has just waited too long to post them. It is a clean old car and one that will make a neat one to bring back. It sure got a lot of lookers after he had already bought it.

I just stopped by to chat with him and his lady and of course to rest my weary bones for a few min and I was inpressed with the old car. I guess I have a soft spot for these old cars as I ran around with a guy that owned one back when they were new and it was dam fast for such a big car.

Here is one more pic of the 409 emblems on the fender.

Larry if I could figure out how to post some pictures I would put some more up. Thanks for posting them I like to get input from others esp. since I do not know alot about these 409 cars.

Verne, The build date is 11E but the build date on the block is T1001QA so is the 690 heads correct or do I use the 583 heads?

Re: 409 Parts Wanted
 

Oct. 1st = 690 heads and 930 cam. Also, it's a 400hp, single AFB. (QA suffix). That'll save you some bucks https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
Since the assembly suffix is still there, the VIN derivitive should be there too! Check it to make sure it's the original engine. If it is, that automatically makes the car worth MORE. How many miles are on the old girl?
Send some more photos to Pantera to post for us to see.
If you have more questions as you go along, just ask. I'll be glad to help if I can.
Post the cowl tag info and I'll let you know how it left the plant.

The partial vin # is on the pad and it matches the title. It only has 54,000 miles. It is pretty good shape. I will get some pictures together and e-mail them to Larry.

Re: 409 Parts Wanted
 

I use a Sony machava camera and they come out just the right size. Feel free to send them to me and I will resize them and post them for you. man that is really a straight and clean old car.

Don't ever look down on the 400 hp version as there is not a great deal of time difference on the strip between it and the dual quads and the single is so much more streetable.
