Lets see all the cool 66-67 b-body mopar pictures.!!

Thanks again guys, I appreciate all the opinions. I just happen to prefer stock. Although this car looks great, the paint has something very wrong with it. When it gets wet or humid, the paint get "pimples" all over it. I thought by 45 it would have out grown this problem. J/K.

It will need a repaint, and once I start it's hard to stop. And since I already have all the hard to find parts, they are going on this car. There was a lot of work finding all them.

On a side note, and I'm not ready yet. I'm going to sell the whole assembly. Someone will get a great high perfomance 440 with all the parts necessary to put it back together.

Sorry I haven't been able to post more pics, but I had to leave at 4 this morning for a swap meet. I'll try tonight.

I think he should do whatever he wants, after all it is his car. Something as simple as a hood can be swapped out, assuming he can find another 67 R/T hood. The more I go to shows and see all these cars put back stock, the more I appreciate the cars that have been "Day 2" restos, and have a bit of character, and don't look like the other "rare" examples. I like looking at cars that have been driven to the events, not pulled out of a box trailer and roped off.

Nice try Jim. Would you like me to install the 440 in the wagon?

That's quite a project, are you fabricating the motor mounts yourself?

 

[ws27]

This car has quite a story. It's an origional RT from VA, brought to my area in the 70's and heavily drag raced. It was the left to rot under some pine trees until I bought it. The car was a beautiful rust free one, but when it was left under the pine trees, it rotted in places that normally don't rot and also vice versa.
I replaced so many panels I'm sure to forget. Used lower qtrs, trunk lid, upper rear corners, trunk drip rail, panels in front of rear tires, trunk floor in two pieces, trunk floor exts, doors, fender, hood, frame repair, cowl repair. Even the front of the rear frame rails had pushed up the floor. And the right door opening was not square.

Three body shops later, it sits as you see it, I have all the parts for this one too, just no time. It sits there teasing me to no end.

I don't know what the car came with origionally, but I'm optioning it up to the hilt. PS, PDB (4 piston), AC, PW, clock, tach, rs mirror, headrests, most of the white hat special, again I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

Sitting in my basement is a 496 stroker with a Kiesler 5 spd. My goal is to try to make it look as factory as possible.

This has been 13 years so far....

Yup. I ran out of welding gas after I started gusseting them. So the engine is back out in the garage while I finish strengthening.

your car looks great and is that a 67 4 door up on the hill? Any good grille surrounds on that? (that you aren't using?)

Sorry, those pics were taken two years ago, that car has been parted. Good eye though, that 4door was neat, it was a 383 2bbl with A/C. Not too common. Every part possible was either used or saved. The right grill surround went to Jim, the left was damaged beyond repair in an accident.

Thanks, thats pretty much the story I get with any grille surround I find. Mine is a similar story on the pass side as the little ol lady definetely nailed something with that fender.

Under hood make over

Changed the valve covers and air cleaner out on the 67 Belv. Had to make a new bracket for the coil to clear the air cleaner. Next up, painting the radiator tank black, I think the brass is too much with the chrome valve covers. First 2 pics were of old set up....
