I find that hard to fantom as I'm told its impossible to have less than $10,000 in a restored Mopar.

I have "about" or slightly less that in my 1974 Duster 360 and that is with me doing the bulk of the work.

I never said my Mopars were restored. You must have misunderstood what I posted.


So folks which is it?

Me, the Mopar guys I hang around, and SuperCuda I guess.
Surely there is more then just us?!?!

Many people forget that not long ago there was no aftermarket for Mopars, you scrounged through junkyards and used parts ads looking for stuff.

Once again this is still how some of us build our Mopars.

To date the Mopar I've paid the most for is $6,100.00 and I don't have much more then that into at this point (~$7,000.00). It was a rust free and straight 1968 Coronet coupe that was a driver as purchased in 2008 with a built 1968 440 HP2 engine, 4-speed manual in it all set-up with quite a few aftermarket add ons,nice aluminum wheels, and a Super Bee hood. It was bought from a swap meet after "thinking about it" for a day and a half so it's not like I scored a deal nobody else could have bought.

Even the supercharged (small B&M roots type supercharger) 1972 Dart was less then that to build, though honestly not much.

Shoot me an e-mail at: daniel_depetro@yahoo.com and I'll send you a bunch of car porn of some of our toys past and present.
All of which have been built for less then the ~$7,000.00 I have into the 1968 Coronet coupe so far.

My point from my earlier post was that not everyone has a fully restored show car. Some of us have to compromise between function and price.




Since a few members mention strength my curiousity piqued a bit.
Anyone know an aprox. "torque rating" that the 23-spline & 18-spline A-833 would have been?
