It's almost spring and this car would make a great Summer Fun Cruiser that presents itself very well at car cruises or car shows.
I have another project that needs to be completed so this one is ready to find a new owner. We have had the car a little over 10 years now. It started life as a 383 automatic convertible and when we purchased it the replacement 383 was not running as strong as it should.
So.... in went a freshly built 440 with a rather lopey cam. I believe the motor is a 1968, but is a non-hp block. It has a Mopar Performance Aluminum Dual plane intake with an 850 Demon Carburetor on it. the Headers and full exhaust are from TTi. It runs and sounds excellent. Just like any well built motor with a TTi exhaust system.
The transmission was completely redone with a "hemi" stall converter in it, the factory high stall converter. This makes it a nice cruiser with good road manners. If you were to race this car I would recommend a higher stall converter.
The tires are like new, the rims are American Racing five spokes. We maybe have driven the car about 5,000 miles since we swapped the motor in.
The paint and interior are the way we purchased it years ago. It is a very bright yellow, it is not the correct shade for this car as it is much brighter for more eye appeal. I have a set of bucket seats that need to be redone and this come with the car.
It has an 8 3/4 Sure Grip unit with 3.55 gears. Trunk floor and body are in excellent shape. This was at one time from California. It has not had any rust out issues. All body panels are solid, the convertible top is nice, but there is one small tear over one of the hinge areas that can be repaired easily.
It runs and drives great, no issues. It is currently in winter hibernation and I need to move it out to make room for another car.
Ask any questions.
Good luck.

I forgot to mention. I converted front brakes to a Master Power Disc brake setup. Complete setup inlcuding the new power booster. There is also a separate vacuum pump on it as well because the cam does not make a lot of vacuum when idling.
The paint job shows very well, this car has always been stored inside a garage and never driven in the winter. The chrome is in very good condition as well.
I do not have the 383 anymore, it was sold off to purchase other parts.

1970 Hemi Challenger is a family heirloom with serious muscle
Wed, Dec 30 2015Petrolicious turns up the emotion in its latest video about a family's connection to their 1970 Dodge Challenger. The orange muscle car that gets the spotlight here is a remarkably beautiful vehicle, but the story of a father and his sons at the core of this clip might leave you feeling a little misty eyed. Juan Escalante is the current owner of this Challenger, but it belonged to his dad first. Juan's father spotted the iconic muscle car during the 1969 Detroit Auto Show and had to have one. He soon placed an order for the orange '70 Challenger R/T with the rare combination for that year of a 426 Hemi V8 and a four-speed manual gearbox. The family even brought the coupe with them when they moved to Venezuela in 1972, and local fans dubbed it El Hemi. However, parts were scarce for the muscle car in that country, and it returned to the US in 1996 for a restoration. Now, the rumbling Challenger with its Coke-bottle profile and black hood is the world's most awesome family heirloom for the Escalantes. In this poignant video, Petrolicious shows how the coupe connects Juan to his father. Related Video:
Police officer fired for sexually harassing a young woman
Wed, Aug 24 2016A police officer in Jackson, Mississippi was fired after a video surfaced on Tuesday of him sexually harassing a young woman from his patrol car. According to WAPT, Officer Darryl Stasher of the Jackson Mississippi Police Department rolled up to two young women walking down the street and began talking to them through the driver's side window of his patrol car. During his discourse, his language because coarser and more suggestive. He gave one young woman his number and told her that he was "going to take care of her" and that he wanted to "do more than talk". He also suggested that the two should "get a room" together. The whole exchange was caught on video, and soon after the incident the young woman uploaded the footage to Facebook where it quickly went viral. It didn't take long for the Jackson Police Department to get wind of the video. "The Jackson Police Department does have possession of the video that was posted to Facebook by the young lady," said JPD Commander Tyree Jones. "Chief (Lee) Vance found the video to be very disturbing. He is very disappointed due to the content that's in the video." Upon learning of the video, JPD put Officer Stasher on desk duty pending the results of an internal affairs investigation. Stasher, who worked for at least eight years for JPD in the second precinct, was fired soon after the investigation finished. Related Video:
FCA recalls 210,000 new Jeeps and Dodges due to a brake issue
Thu, Aug 23 2018FCA is recalling some 210,000 vehicles in the U.S. and elsewhere over a possible braking issue. On this occasion, the recall is made less complicated by the fact that about one-third of the affected vehicles are so new, they still reside on dealer lots, making them easy to tally up and put right. The recall concerns 2018 Dodge Journeys, 2019 Jeep Cherokees and 2018-2019 Dodge Grand Caravans and 2018-2019 Jeep Compasses. Most were built in spring 2018, and the recall is related to a brake system component that failed to meet FCA specifications. Further information available on the NHTSA website details the issue, saying that insufficiently coated rear brake caliper pistons may cause gas pockets to form in the brake fluid of very new vehicles. This in turn can reduce rear brake performance — bubbles in brake lines are not desirable. FCA underlines that the brakes still function, but stopping distance can be affected. As a remedy, the brake systems are inspected and re-bled. The recall is slated to begin on Sept. 28. In addition to 154,337 vehicles in the United States, the recall concerns 19,066 units in Canada, some 900 in Mexico and some 35,500 vehicles on other markets.
