Glad you like novadude. Not too many years ago I owned a 70 Nova L78 4 speed paint code 75. Manual steering, no radio, rubber floors. Purchased for speed only. BTW....all #'s matching. It was a great car.

If you guys dig the OP's car, check this one out:



However, I must take issue with the &quot;1 or 2&quot; comment - that's from Galen's Registry, so that means it's 1 of 2 known 440-4 Shakers in his registry. To the non-Mopar fans out there, Shakers are much more common on 440 Six Pack and Hemi Challenger R/Ts, but the single 4bbl. Shaker units were slow to trickle out to the public in 1970.

As far as the color combo, there's no way to know it's 1 of 1 because Chrysler's records didn't keep option combinations, but red stripes are quite rare for any color (usually found on white and black cars), and DY3 is already quite rare for the R/T.

Absolutely correct 442w30. 1 of 2 known to exist. I did a lot of homework before I finalized the deal with Dave West. I looked everywhere and talked to a lot of guys that are &quot;in the know&quot;. There is also a shaker registry. I talked to the owner (Travis) of that registry in detail. Travis only know of two U codes....mine and the black 4 speed. The 440 Six Pack and Hemi Challenger was where you would see the shakers implemented. There was also a hood change for the 70 model year for shakers....to add crumple zones to the hood. My car has a May build date and also has the updated hood.

Stunning examples here of &quot;different is good&quot; !!!! MY favorite color on the 70's has always been B5....Wheel covers and body side molding .... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]
