I sent You 2 sets this was the second set I'll resend the SS427. This followed me home just after the 68 its the 71 455HO T/A that was on e-bay that was listed as not numbers matching. The owner didn't know where the vin was. We bought it then he discovered the vin with the help of a Ponitac expert that wasn't bidding cost more, but a super solid 54,000 mile car. Just the quarters are bad. The cowl and windshield that were discussed under the for sale area are super just was covered in dirt and squirrel nestings. Killer find!!!

A '69 500...I just didn't have my Mopar cap on but should've known better with that flush looking grille area! . What motor was it and an XX or XS Vin car? .

And sorry on missing the '69 ragtop...I should've F-11'd my screen first! .

Great find! I know the drag guys told me they like the 68 over the 66 for weight transfer and performance. Looks like the wait was worth it!

Cool Jim...just after yesterday's Ford discussion and results, I'm afraid if I express too much liking for the big window Charger, some fella' named Dodge may pass away? .

So the TA was numbers matching? Outstanding! Congratulations on the buy. I would have liked to purchase that car.

They were chrome. Sherwood Allen used to tune it for me and always got a charge outta what a bad muther it was for a big car. Even had Pos-A-Traction tires on it ~ front and rear! God...I wish I knew where it ended up

(and no....she wasn't me girlfriend! The sea hag in the front seat was the mother of older women who "liked my shifter" when I was just 19....but, thats another Forum! lolololo)
