neat stuff !! Always learning here !!! why was the 15 not available w the 440 vert? I assume the conv. top got in the way?..but it was available w 383 vert? hmmmmm... a weight thing w space saver spare?



back to this beautiful car !! I vividly remember when my next door neighbor came home one day after trading his 70 Judge for an RT 440-4 speed, yellow w/ the side striping...I was about 12-13 years old....he took me for a ride...
I instantly became a Mopar fan !!!

this car with original paint is a sweet survivor !! GLWS !!

NO e-body Mopar originally equipped with 15-inch wheels was available with a full size 15-inch spare - only a collapsible. The trunks in them simply did not have the room for 15s. Further, if your car did have 14s on it and was equipped with the twin rear speaker option OR rear defogger you also had to have the collapsible spare -not a full size 14 spare as there was, again, no room.
