HELP Identifying K-member

[1967 'cuda]

A good buddy of mine passed away last year and his family is sorting through hundreds of Mopar parts for an upcoming estate sale next month. I was hoping someone could help identify this K-member. Ray raced a lot of 68-71 B-bodies and played around with 383/440/426 Hemis. The skid plate on it caught my eye. ???

There should be a part number on it....just don't remember where.

Good eye. It is a 68-69 B body Hemi k member, the idler arm mount bracket tells us for sure.

There is no part number o anywhere on it. There is a date stamp in center facing forward.

Any information on the upcoming estate sale? Auction?

Thanks-a-bunchR413. How unusual would the skid plate be? - And... - Did these K-members use a different idler arm than was used on a 383/440 K-member?

This one looks like a 70-72 B/E body 440-6 barrel unit.

1966-1969 skid plate is hemi only. Nothing else had one. 1970 skid plate is a different part and used on a 440 4bbl & 6 bbl B&E body also.

Hemi uses all the same steering linkage as anything else

Ray didn't butcher the cars he raced. They are all easily streetable again. They were going to throw that K-member in a scrap iron pile before I told them to wait. It'll be on sale at the auction but I don't know if there will be any bidders interested in it. Ray was constantly searching swap meets for specific factory performance carbs & intakes. They haven't identified most of his parts yet but among the several spare blocks is supposed to be another 426 Hemi block.

They shouldn't be throwing anything away until after the auction. A guy who was into this stuff will have lots of jewels in the stack.

How did the auction go? Any FBBO in attendance? Was it online also?
