I didn't think it was possible, but this white one makes the blue one look semi-restorable!

Here's another delusional seller who thinks this is an easy restoration of a super rare car.

I love his statement: "WE ALL NO WHAT THESES CARS ARE WORTH SO PLEASE NO LOW BALLERS"

Steve, he listed the carb #, is it the correct carb?

Hey guys, seller stated in his last notes the carb number is 7040273 and rearend is COZ. Also says he has PHS documents in hand but doesn't know if there's a code on the sheet for transmission type. Does anyone know if a code exist on the PHS info that breaks down trans type, 20 vs. 21? Also, is 7040273 the correct carb?

COZ is the 3.73 rear end ratio. 7040273 is the correct carb# for a 70 Ram Air four speed.

Steve,
I still don't understand your insane devotion to this TA project when you have that Hemi Charger at home.
I'm sure you'll come up with a cleaver explanation......

(BTW, my last plating load turned out better than the others)

Steve thanks for the tutorial. I just went out and checked my 72 T/A front clip, and I have the flat radiator support, but the 73 and up fenders.

As a sidenote, I believe it was a devastating UAW strike in 1972 that resulted in a very short run (only 1,286 Trans Ams produced), and over 2100 Camaros and Firebirds were left in various stages of production on the assembly lines. When the strike ended, these 1972 cars would not meet the new 1973 Federal standards, so the 1972 models that were in process were all scrapped.

Cuz it's been raining since for six straight weeks and I can't drive the Charger? That's all I can think of at the moment, Verne.

There is a cruise night in Flemington this Saturday 6/27 and the weather is allegedly going to be nice...and it's Mopar night, too. So we'll see if the Punxatawny Charger sees its shadow and wants to leave the garage, finally
