Me too!
The cars were mass produced on an assembly line. A lot of discrepancies happened from time to time. I think it was E-Berg that said all Mopars of the era except black and dark blue cars were painted black on the grill side of the rad support. My original Electric Blue ‘68 Satellite wagon only has a little spritz in the lower corner. I guess the gun ran dry. It’s completely blue looking through the grill from the factory. And OEM resto types will tell you it isn’t “correct”. Only it was, and is.
Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I didn't check that picture to see how it came out.
Maybe not. I can get 10.5s under my 69 rr, pretty easily. Those look to be around 12", might just have the springs moved. (Edit: and the rear wheels look kinda narrow for that big a slick, too)With the size of those slicks it has to be tubbed?
And yet.... my friends unrestored A66 70 340 Challenger, in B7, has a full coat of black on the front of the core support. Maybe they paid more attention to a (kinda rare) first year E-body , than a station wagon. (NO slur on your wagon, I love long roof cars!)
Maybe. Maybe the hourly line workers knew that first year E bodies would be worth way more than a wagon someday, or not. The engine bay on my E87 D21 N96 EK2 ‘70 ‘Cuda was painted satin black before I bought it in ‘83. So I’ll never know on that one.
