BTW . . . look for exhaust manifolds from 71(??)-73 Road Runner with 318. They look EXACTLY like regular 318 manifolds, but have the port sizes for the larger 340/360 !! As well, the pass side is not drilled out for heat riser valve !! I don't have a pic of them on this computer, but they also have "318 RR" stamped on them !! Great way to let the bigger engine breathe, but still have things looking 318 stock !!

The cloth insert in the seats is AWESOME !!! Here is what I did on my Sport Satellite . . . yes, the car came from factory with the 6way manual adjust drivers seat - and the knobs were one black and one chrome !!

Cheers

Mark

PS - Make the car for YOU !!! It is yours !!

mymcodebee - What I do is salvage old barn and sell the lumber and I notice Cuda and Challenger is down the hill that no one notice it from the road. And I was lucky and brought it but he gave me Challenger free because it so rusty and missing a lot of parts. You can look it up under E-bodies parts for sale.
I will send another pix where I found the way it is.

a12rag - Nice car. I bet you get a lot of attention from car show?? Yes I will restored it back to factory 318. The vinyl seat was cool too but I look it up to buy new cover and it cost about over $1000

Bltcuda72 . . . I got the cloth insert fabric, from SMS in Oregon. I got way more than I needed, so spent more than I should have, then there was the Legendary Interior at $1k and then having the shop redo the seats, change out the vinyl insert for the cloth . . . Don't even ASK how much $$$$ is wrapped up in the seats in the Sport Satellite !!!!. . . Ugghhh, but in the end, (which is what really sits on the seats) it was worth it !! ha ha ha . . . Yes the FC7 "In-Violet" color gets way noticed !!

Your car will get WAYYYYY noticed, because it IS NOT the hemi 4spd clone . . . love to see the "regular" cars getting thier do. After all, not every car sold back then, was a Hemi, or big block car. And, with cost of fuel these days (ok, it has come down TONS, but when it was higher), it is great to be able to drive your car wherever and whenever you want !!!

Good find and good luck with it !!! Keep the updates coming !!!

Cheers,

Mark

Did you sell it? I just saw it listed on Craigs and clicked back over and it was gone.

So someone is flipping it now? That's a drag.


I’m listening.
