A body guy from W Cda
Hi from Western Canada,
Name's Ted and I have always been a 440 guy. Chargers, RR GTX, R/Ts then finally faster and into 440 A bodies.
Back in the eighties I drove 4 hrs to the track and ripped off a 12.1@118mph in my 440 Duster 4 speed car with street tires and mufflers.
My favourite A body was always the fb 'cudas and I had 4 of them including a 9 sec tubbed and framed 68. I currently own a 440 73 Duster. Restored, tubbed to frame, subframe connectors, front engine comp stiffening bars, 8 3/4 rear axle etc. High 12s on street tires 14mpg (us) and a 250hp Nitrous kit. I put the car up for sale because I have too many.
I have a 71 340 4 spd Demon project in my other garage. 373ci 400bhp engine new for it and ran out of energy to finish it.
I've been kicking *** in my 01 Viper GTS (720+rwhp) for the last couple years however. If anyone has an interest in buying some A bodies/resto/project/several engines/several bodies/etc. for $30K I'd be wanting to talk...
