I watched the Blue Angels fly them back in the 70’s. Damn they were loud!

Oops! :)

I don’t have the broadcast sheet for my Charger. It does however have the fender tag that starts with E87 D21. A “Mopar guy” said to me years ago that fender tags are reproduced, so it didn’t prove it to be original. I guess he forgot about the matching sequence number on the 833 pad. I got it...

Looks like a modified F body to me.

Bridgeport. :)

I passed on many Chargers because almost all of them were automatic. I got my E87 D21 in April ‘85 in this condition, picture from ‘88. The ‘Cuda, also E87 D21… same. I looked at others that were 727 and passed. The Satellite is a 904. First thing I bought for it was an 18 spline 883.

Any ‘67-‘70 B 4 speed console will work. Of course without the bench seat only that was in the ‘68 road runner. Edit… Automatic. :)

Back in the day when ‘67 HP closed chamber heads were the hot ticket, I broke off a stud flush on one of the heads. I took it to a guy that burned it out with a torch. Then it leaked like hell. I took it to another shop and the machinist drilled it out, and tapped it for a pipe plug. He then...

From a factory point of view, the 2nd digit in the VIN is for price class. Not model.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a factory ‘69 A body 440 mount, and have seen plenty of 383 mounts. My ‘Cuda is a ‘70 so it used the standard B body mounts. My point was that there are 440’s with those bosses that are tapped. Was originally for the ‘65-‘66 C body. Maybe over the years they...

I mentioned ‘65 blocks. I haven’t seen more than 15 though.

Yeah. Not often seen. All ‘65 440 blocks I’ve seen have them as they were only put in C and D bodies for the ‘66 MY. The ‘69 factory 440 A bodies all had them as well.
