Greetings fellow A body fans. Just wanted to share. I brought home a new member to add to my Mopar family. Pretty decent shape. Minimal rust. 400BB /727 combo. 8.75 rear. Needs some love in the interior department. I have already contacted some of you about parts. Gotta love the color. My wife has named it the creamsicle. Apparently it was put together years ago by someone who worked at the Chrysler proving grounds in Michigan. If anyone knows any history on this beast please chime in.

Really really cool looking car and the 400BB....couldn't ask for more. Could you give us a hint on what you paid (ball park).

PS - You're very lucky@@@@

Here's the engine compartment. I will have to make some changes to the motor. I think it was really built for drag racing. If you look closely at the distributor it has a cable drive to the tachometer. Kinda cool in an old school way but it is pretty noisy. No pics of the interior. It has bucket seats out of something that someone spray painted black. Cheapo black carpet and no backseat. Heater box and vent box are missing as well. I plan to put all of that back in along with new seats and headliner.
