Is the sheet metal shield on the brake metering block factory? Anyone have a picture of the shield off the car?

The heat shield is a repo. I've never seen a real one up close. I understand that the repos are made from a oem part.

Charlie, Tell us all you can remember about this car and yours, maybe your old car will show up. This is the first time I've messed with a bodies, except to cut them up into racecars, and I have to say the big block cars are interesting and underrated to say the least. I think that because of all the unique parts and limited numbers there should be more intrest, but what do I know.

Charlie, I got the car from Joe Ary, he bought it form Bud LaFevre who brought it down from Ohio. Bud bought it from the dealer he was working at in Columbus it was a trade in. I plan to hang on to this one and a '64 Sport Fury 426 4 speed I have and thats it.I'm in New Waverly which is about 15 min north of Conroe. Get the Charger going and come hang out.

I have a few original heat shields and 1 repo. I think i remember there being a little difference? I'll have to look again. Maybe get pics if different?


I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

Wow, The shot of the drivers side exhaust pipe is impressive! Is that head pipe 2.5? That has to be rough on the starter.

Very nice by the way

I haven't done much lately on the Dart. One of the things I did was put the wheels and tires on and drive it down the street to my office the other day. It lives but still have a way to go.
