Base price of the car was $3,500, automatic transmission was only $227 versus $500-$700 for AC.

I don't believe any of them fetched over 2 grand or so. There's enough interchangabilty with later stuff that won't leave you stranded due to something breaking. Personally, if it were a two door, I would LOVE one. Where is this one located? The experts on these cars at over at moparfins and cbodydrydock.

There's a small handful that know what they are talking about. Most of them need training on how to start a car. Commando1 is right about Moparfins. The tallent there is more knowledgable. Not to mention, the ones in the know also left the Dock for Fins. I'm a Dock member too. I am constantly trying to straighten out people who are guessing. Frankly, I just won't do it anymore. Been a dock member since it's conception.

Been a dock member since it's conception. I wish I had a dollar for every post on the dock where somebody asked the same questions that have already been answered about 1000 times prior - like headers and disc brakes. That site does need a few search nazis for the lazy people. Parts I seek: driver doorpanel, 65 Sport Fury, prefer black, needs to be 7-8 on 10 scale, might buy set 16" x 6" Dodge truck wheel(s), from early 70s?, takes 9" dogdish - need for a research job so cheaper is better. 69-73 C-body caliper brackets and/or splashields Send a PM.
