1969 Charger RT Resto

[njsteve]

Nice: 440 Magnum and A/C. Automatic I presume?

Since 8 3/4 rear is original I'm thinking it would have to be an automatic.

You are correct, Sir! I forgot about that. Probably a 3.23 given the A/C

Here are a few pics from today, after I pressure washed the K member and rear end.
The car has some kinda strange options, auto, A/C, rear defogger, PS, drum brakes, am, fader, vinyl top, tail stripe, road wheels with redline tires, undercoating, no light package or PB, or Sure Grip. Open with a 3.23..

Few more pics. Can some one tell me what the yellow numbers mean on the rear end tube?

Thanks Guys,

Lawrence

Additionally, no AC with 4-speeds.

A little bit of a myth on that one. Several examples of A/C cars with 4spds [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] Several in the 69 Charger Registry, and my good friend owns a 69 Bee, 383-4spd car with factory A/C.

If what you meant was no R/Ts with A/C and a 4spd, then yes since all R/Ts came with 440s. But then again, I think there is a Y39 special order car that came with it. But as a rule, no 440-4spd cars, just 383-4spd cars. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] Welcome to Mopars and all the crazy crap associated with them!!

You could get a 1970 Charger R/T with a 440, 4-speed and A/C, as well as a U-code 440 Cuda or Challenger R/T.

No, no myth at all:



I felt the context of the conversation made it clear I was talking about the Charger R/T. :twocents:

Looks very clean. Going back to the original color?
