I bought this to go Nostalgia Super Stock Racing and Street Race.
My understanding is it is a original 383 four barrel that broke when it
was nearly new and was replaced with a 426 Street Wedge by the Dodge
Dealer at owner expense.
It has the original Red/White Paint. I can not find any bondo or body work period
and only one
very small dent behind drivers door that should pop out.
It has great Bones: The Floors/Trunk/Frame and suspension are in great
condition!
However, it was kept right next to Malibu beach and the external body has significant
rust in most of the usual places on the exterior that you find on these cars. It does
not need the quarters replace or any panels replaced. It does need remedial repair on the rust areas
around the front and rear windows and roof. Also a patch or repair above the top of rear tire area.
One seat needs recovering but it has covers for both seats.
All the trim is there and nice. There is a lot of spare stuff including a extra nice
grille. There are a bunch of extra stuff the second owner accumulated over 20/30 years.
The body is very straight and bondo free!
The engine has 800 easy street miles on it and never raced yet: The ODO
was Zeroed when my friend put the freshened engine/trans in the car. It was
alleged to have 40,000 Miles on it. Most of it a 1/4 miles at a time as it was race
most weekends for a couple decades in Northern California!
It is a 491 Stroker (4.28 x 4.25 Stroke) as I calculate it.
Scat Crank/Rods (7.1 length)
Edelbrock aluminum heads with some porting/bowl work.
Edelbrock Torker II Intake and Holley dual feed (But you can choose any of my
200 carbs in our race shop for it)
MSD 6AL analog ignition
Headman Headers
It was alleged to make 612HP @ 6,200 but there are no Dyno sheets that
I have found yet in the Files and Documentation that I obtained with the car.
The transmission was done at the same time by Mike's Racing Transmission
in Lancaster CA. one of the top race trans shops in California
The 3500 Furnaced Braised Converter was done by Chris personally the owner
of Continental Converters.
Unfortunately, the car has sat for ten years and will need the fuel system drained/cleaned
and everything else serviced and inspected. I spun the engine over prior to purchase and
made sure it had oil pressure. But I made sure it did not have fuel pressure with the Skunky
gas that is in the tank.
I have all the original removed Parts from the 426 including Heads/Rods/Pistons/Valvetrain etc.
They are all standard and appear to be in nice shape and never apart before this build.
If it was not dealing with the external rust issues and had not been sitting 10 years, It would be
a $30,000+ Car
clean California title with no Fees due.
However, I have a Dozen race cars and I realize that I just do not have time to get this car on the road an
we are back racing the end of Jan.
THEREFORE FIRST .......................$12,500 Takes It.
I will deliver anywhere withing 500 Miles of Nevada for free or anywhere in 48 States
for just the price of Diesel!
