NEW charger day !!!!!!!!!!!

that engine bay looks REALLY good. A/C, power brakes AND power steering. Man, you're set!
What's the motor, transmission and exhaust setup?

The motor is a 440 (not the original one) edelbrock manifold, 4 barrel holley double pumper carb. Has aftermarket aluminum heads but I forgot the brand.

727 auto trans.

Headers with dynomax ultraflo mufflers. Exhaust has a DRONE at certain speeds. Something I've got to do something about, either different mufflers or maybe resonators.

Congratulations! I like the ride height

I actually don't like ride height. I scraped the bottom going over a curb cut (that was designed to be driven over). I'm going to have it restored to stock ride height.

Smart move! I have stock height all around, car handles excellent, looks good and never bottoms out

I live in florida. I bought the car in illinois. Sorry for the confusion.

I would love to hear how was your experience with that dealer. I've looked at their cars many times. Any info you could share would be great.

I agree, it's too low for my tastes--especially in the rear.

I bought the car from volo auto museem in Illinois. I went up there to look at the car in person so I delt with them in person.

Nice people, very professional organization. it's obvious they sell a lot of classic cars.

Car was just as they described. They don't really deal on the price. Took it for a test drive, they put it on a lift so could see underneath. They have a full and professionally run shop.

After I bought it, they take it in their shop and fix anything you find wring with it during your inspection. In my case they even fixed so things I didn't discover (replaced a gauge). Handled the shipping with a very professional car hauler.

After I received the car, took it to get gas and the car wouldn't start at the pump. Dead battery. Got it jumped, went to autozone and bought a brand new battery. Called them up, and they sent a check for the battery.

All in all would not hesitate to do business with them again.
