Hey hey. :) Unfortunately its still for sale. But not giving it away and Ive turned down a lot of silly offers. One guy from here was sending repeated hints via email he was gonna make an offer and not low-ball me and did this repeatedly till I told him to make the offer and stop hinting at it...

Hey, we've chatted in the past. Maybe in PM here as well. Not 100% sure. :D

Maybe, I guess this one of the things that will just run and run. But the 340 was brought over for a race program, so clearly the intention was never to dump it in a 770. They clearly knew it was a more race orientated engine that went in R/T's etc in the US. Could have easily made a 340 R/T as...

A single Exhaust, no LSD and a 727, dumped in a 770 is strangled compared to what the 265 got in the R/T. Which was a tuned triple webber 265, close ration 4 speed, HD suspension, Brake proportion valve, LSD etc. So yeh, strangled. Even then it was a close match. Give the 340 half of what the...

Ah ok. I wondered if it was Oil related as thats why I was down in Australia. We dont often do 30 days at sea these days, but regularly 21 days. This year due to Covid I spent over 90 days in hotel rooms in either quarantine or self isolation waiting to go off-shore, this time it was 28 days...

Whats a West-pac pump?

The 245 was the poverty pack engine. Gutless. The E49 265 was faster than the 340, but then it was blueprinted, hand built, broken in, stripped down, checked and re-built. Triple Webbers, 4 speed close ration gear box and a Limited Slip Diff with 3.23 gears. The 340's where initially shipped...

Why a 245 Aussie Charger? 265 at a minimum, they also came with a 318, 340 and a 360.

Ive had many RHD A Bodies, currently I have my 1969 Barracuda Convertible which is US built and my 1971 Valiant Charger which is Australian built. Indeed, with the engines scooted over to the (US) passenger side to allow for the Steering Box etc it made space on the RHD cars drivers side very...

Its out of a 1967-1969 RHD Plymouth Barracuda. There was about 200 of them built in the US for the UK market. I believe they used South African Valiant Clusters and Dash frames though. I'm not 100% sure if the RHD Valiants, ie VE, VF, VG that where imported to the UK from Australia had the same...

Already registered in my name. :) But he's also sent me all the docs as well and has never contested that I owned the car. But he did ask how I came into possession of it. Which is an unusual almost legal word which could be used to describe me not owning it but having possession of a car that...

Nope, and he's not answering any questions regarding that either for some reason. Very odd. He still has the stroked 360 sitting at his place of work to. Maybe get that cheap one day. :D

It sure will.:) Been a bit of a rollercoaster ride locating him, getting in contact, getting told to wait time and time again for various reasons then basically giving up hope for him to then contact me saying hes needing them gone tomorrow or they go in the trash. He's wanting to keep in...

Like this? :D I have another mint condition one sitting in my garage here in Scotland.

So a little update regarding the missing parts. The previous owner till had almost everything except the engine, which he had scrapped and had a stroked 360 lined up to go in after the resto (that clearly never happened) He seems like a really nice guy, had a truck deliver me the parts for the...

That does sound fun. Especially the booze. :D

What do you do there apart from the WW2 stuff?

Deffo a place I'll be heading to then, cheers. :)

Im sure that was kinda documented in the latest Pearl Harbour Movie?

Sounds great! We where fortunate enough to have a trip around Pearl Harbour and tour of the USS Bowfin, was a humbling experiance and fascinating at the same time. I had a cruise around Japan booked with my 16 year old this summer but obviously that was canceled. :( If she's not still obsessed...

Just been reading about your town on Wiki. I love the history of places like that and hope to visit some day. As I work in the Oil Industry in Norway I would often head over to Houston for Training Courses. We where based in Spring and I loved walking around Old Town Spring and looking at all...

It was. Its now a 340 4 speed. :D

Kinda heavy. :D I know they're wider at the rear than a standard A Body. Ive since learned a 64-67 B Body axle drops right in.

Me? Ive not started it yet. No time just now, but gathering parts here and there. :)

Nice vid. :) I have a '71 VH 770.

Crap, I thought that was a private message. :D

Ah of course. :D Its still a term used here all the time. .D There was a vote on who as the best Bond here recently. Sean was voted number one. Its interesting how poor his family was back in Scotland. When he was a baby he literally had to sleep in the bottom drawer in the chest of drawers...

Look at what ju The Australian Valiant Charger (as per my profile pic) Its actually my 5th Aussie Charger now. :D I really hope to keep this one though.

Shagging Wagon! Never expected to hear that from an American. :D Do you guys use that term as well? Makes for an interesting read over a coffee as well. Well, does for me anyway as I now have two of the cars mentioned on that list. :D Chrysler of the United Kingdom - the history and the cars

Some quality homework and fabbing going on there!
