I think 383 was Challenger R/T and 'Cuda base engines (JS and BS). JH and BH base engines may have been the 318.

Great car! Smart swap. Pictures, pictures, pictures 😁

If you have no lights and no start, likely a ground problem.

$900? That is crazy. I had the heads of a '71 440 done for $18 per seat. Only exhaust seats needed doing. I pulled the heads and handed them to my machinist (this guy built race engines). He removed the keepers, valves and springs, checked the guides and reinstalled the valves and springs...

Cheaper to pull the heads and have hardened seats installed.

Curious about the '71. Did the rally hood have the DODGE lettering in '71? Did a rally hood car have fender turn signals? I've always wondered about fender turn signals on a rally hood car. For some reason, it just doesn't look right to me. I'm aware the R/T was not available on a 'vert in...

Just the outside, right? Inside was smooth?

I looked at that site for the 1970 383 and 440 dual snorkel air cleaners. It is ambiguous as to whether the paint is a smooth black or a crinkle black. Which is correct?

Looks like some surface area not coated in bearing grease that got some moisture. As long as there are no cracks and the seal surface is good, I'd say it is usable.

How bad is the corrosion? As long as its not in danger of breaking the spindle, clean as best as possible. Rotor rides on the bearings, not the spindle. Unless the integrity of the seal is compromised, of course.

I think he means it comes with the rally hood and AMD fenders (seen in pic). The flat hood and original fenders are listed separately (original fenders must be rough). Just my guess.

When the wheels are on the ground, if the drop link ends are below the sway bar mounts on the k member, it should curve up. If the drop link ends are above the sway bar mounts, curve down. The goal is to keep the sway bar end mounting points parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the drop...

Is that an Olds Vista Cruiser roof and rear glass?

Agree ;)

I don't know. No way I sell my #6 convertible for $21,600.
