Hi, I saw your message in BaT and tried to reply with my email address but it seems BaT filters out any replies with an email address in the comments, probably to keep sellers from making side deals on their cars . I’ll send you a PM on here. Cheers.

Very cool, that’s pretty much exactly how I picture most big block A- bodies looking in the seventies and early eighties. It seems most of them became street/strip cars by the time they got to their second or third owner. I dig the license plate as well.

This one was definitely built FC7 top and bottom with a black stripe. No M21 drip rail mouldings on the tag, though.

Just saw this thread today and lots of interesting info here. I own the car that has its fender tag shown in post #3 so any info about these cars is great to know.

Friend of mine's neighbor had a Jeep Cherokee with the 4.0 engine that would randomly lose oil pressure then be ok again after shutting it off for awhile. It happened several times before he parked it then gave it to my friend as he bought something else. My friend tries it and same issue. I ask...

I'd say that the rust on there is fine for driving around, in fact it gives it character. It's only when there are holes you can put your fingers through that it should be repaired, IMO. Even though the body isn't perfect, it's still better than 99% of the other unrestored cars out there which...

D34 on the fender tag shows it was an automatic car originally and being that it's a 74 A-body,it would have had a 7 1/4 or 8 1/4 rear end. Someone likely had a 4 speed parts car and decided to have some fun with the family car.

Maybe there was a tie down device welded on for shipping the car? Just spit balling.

Man, I love seeing cars like this come out of the woodwork. I have a couple that were in similar condition and my philosophy is get them looking the way they were when they were parked or taken out of regular service back in the 70's or 80's. There are a ton of restored cars out there as well as...

I just pulled a 318/727 out of a similar unit and it came out the front with a lift plate bolted where the carb was and the arm of the engine as close as possible.I chopped the front lower crossmember out and it came out pretty much complete with exhaust manifolds,oil pan,starter,motor...

Since it started up right from the get go,I'd assume that they prepped the motor before starting it but who knows what happened before the video started. That's an amazing find and personally I'd leave the Hemi in the Cuda since it's been in there since the car was practically new and was a big...

I bought this plate a couple years before I had the right car to put it on but I think it fits perfectly on this 71 Swinger 340 Special that spent most of it's life in Alberta.

That thing is awesome.Like others have said,finding these kinds of oddball cars are another thing that is so cool about Mopars.

Looks great,hope you guys had a blast there.

Did some detective work and found the members photo garage with pictures of the car. 1967 Dart GT

I'm 99% sure it did have the copper interior as well as I was contemplating an exterior color change on my car (which has the copper interior) and I thought the combo worked well together. I've seen several other 67 convertibles with the medium copper exterior and copper interior so it seems...

Never seen a Barracuda in that color but there's a member here who has a 67 Dart hardtop in that color and it looks pretty nice.

It wouldn't be a pilot car as the 383 option was introduced late in the model year but it's an amazing find if it's legit.

If you take out the back seat,you might be able to get access to the trunk latch thru the trunk.Just tape a bunch or extensions together with a 1/2 socket on the end and you should be able to unbolt the latch with no risk of damage and pull the lock out to get re-keyed by a locksmith.

Little stroker boy is pretty quiet now.Thank goodness for that.

I've seen a number of them in small towns in central WA State but would have to look for the pics. I saw this one about a year ago in Arizona on a road trip down there.It looked empty with an old for sale sign laying on the ground beside it but the building still looked decent. This one...

Cool,you're now officially living my dream.I've seen a number of old dealerships bought by enthusiasts and collectors and want to do the same. I found an old 40's era Chrysler dealership for sale in central British Columbia for a decent price a couple years ago and seriously thought about it...

I remember this as well,I think they used a 360/904 combo.The Mitsu trucks,some of which were badged as Dodge D50's, used a 904 trans behind the 4 banger so everything from the tranny back would be a bolt in operation which saves a lot of work.

Sorry to hear of his passing,I'd imagine it's especially hard at this time of year. Hopefully getting his old Bee up and running will be therapeutic for you.

Good score.It's so much easier,and cheaper, to start with a solid car that's complete. It looks low in the back,is there junk in the trunk as well?

Damn,that is Badazz through and through.Congrats.

260 cid gas engine...is that some sort of flathead industrial unit?

That's a great looking Bee...like others have said,hopefully your dad will still around to go for more rides in "his" car when it's up and running again.

That could explain it.Not much to do in the middle of winter there except go stir crazy and have wild visions in your head then go paint them on your car.

Far from it. It's from the small historic town of Greenwood,British Columbia (population 650) which is surrounded my hundreds of miles of wilderness.
