Ex Mosher's Mopar [famous name in Mopar circles] shop wagon. 360 cu in engine, with all the good bits [Edelbrock inlet and carb, street cam, headers, electronic ignition] 727 Torqueflite box, also tuned. All in all , about 420 bhp, runs 17 second quarters all day long [timing slips to prove] No rot, just original L.A patina. Interior is reasonably tidy, everything works. Looking for something more comfortable [bench seat doesn't agree with my back]..anything considered, as long as it's oddball [no Mondeos please.....] must be capable of long distances without crippling me, pref auto. Car is near Maidstone       |

Really......? Gearing, weight, tall rear tyres, track conditions.................at least this has the slips to prove, unlike most "my car will do 12 second quarters" keyboard warriors. If you think this is slow, get yourself down to Kent and I'll take you out in it.............

Manufacturers 1/4 mile times are usually taken with a large pinch of salt, and usually are the result of them tweaking production cars.....and lying a lot! This model was never produces with a 360, only 318 and 383 engines......................no offence taken, by the way........
