This is another saga of bringing a dead mover back to life after a 16 year nap. We're not doing a Roger Gibson make over here,( but he's one of the best restorers of Mopars out there). this is going to be a driver, as in daily driver. Car was originally triple black built for export, probebly sold through a military base but never made it out of the states. It has Rallye suspension, sway bars, disc brakes, 240HP 340 4 barrel,(down from 275 HP the year before) 727 auto, 3:23 sure grip rear end. Weird interior though, no rallye gauges and it's an auto on the column. Engine was/is a runner , but needs all new freeze plugs, so we will be doing a little cleaning and detailing as we go. The belongs to my friend Terry, otherwise known as Kickingwing(lookalike) from the Joe dirt movie.
Built for Export tag
Had to rob the engine stand from my RR's original 383, see those cut open valve covers, I found out 70 only valve covers for a 440 are worth quite a bit of coin,,,,after I hacked them open for oil catchers
