62-65 Car show

[65affair]

I really love the 46RH trans, i have the shift control via pressure switches and a vacuum switch and it works flawlessly. the big thing with this trans is cutting off the bell housing to fit the Big Block, modified the trans cross member and a small dent in the trans tunnel. The Headlights are HID units that i found on Ebay for $70, they work good for me and they are bright. The AC system is a generic Vintage air system called a Gen IV, that works good also.

A friend found one of these for me. A guy I have met (now passed on) drove this car. His father owned the car and had a Mopar dealership in central Iowa. Gary went on to run a machine shop and specialized in Mopars and did work for Mopar on the racing side and also the oem side. Chuck and Gary campaigned AWB cars and on to Hemi Cuda's. Here's a few pictures of their cars. The die cast I got

is one of 402 produced and I am proud to own it. Here's a pic. of the model and a pic of the original car.

That second picture, working on the wheel house, looks like it might have Yankee Peddler on the side.

Edit: I found it, it was "The Defender"

Yep. Chuck Ostrich sponsored on the quarter panel.

I am not for certain but I have heard the B1 came from Gary's shop as well as the Hemi headed 383's in the early Mopar Pro Stockers. Roger Lectenberg (Radar) worked for him specializing in cylinder heads. Radar drove the "Orange Crate" fuel Nostalgia Dragster lately and has a active shop outside of Hudson, Iowa. He rebuilt heads for John Force a few years back. I had his shop go through the heads on my 273 when I rebuilt it a few years ago. Rich Mopar history from Chuck, Gary, and Radar.
