This is an original BH..G car that was built and restored to match an original BS..R car in every way. If you had a real factory BS..R car sitting next to mine, they would be almost identical. The only differences would be 2 letters on the VIN and the price tags. I can drive and have fun with my car, the other guy can't.
Engine: Engine is a 1969 solid lifter 426 HEMI with Dual Edelbrock 600cfm 4 BBL, 3/8" fuel lines, bored and decked, new cam, hardened valve seats, exhaust is non-restrictive pushing out through TTI pipes and into Flowmaster 40's for a killer sound.
Chassis: Chassis is all original but has been maintained for driving. All tie rods and lower control arms and upper control arms have been replaced or checked. The suspension does not need a thing. The 727 transmission has been built for the HEMI with a Hughes 2200 stall converter and Auto-grip shifter. 11" HD Brake drums, power front disc brakes, with correct hemi brake booster. I did meet Mark Worman of Grave Yard Carz this summer.
He liked my car and was impressed it had correct '69 Hemi in it. He also liked the correctness of the engine brake booster.
Body: Body is an original unmolested 46 year old California car with no rust. It has never
been wrecked, just lovingly pampered by "Mopar Mike" for 20+ years. It is painted with two stage urethane Base coat, clear coat. Color is Tor-red UV2 with black side stripes. The paint is very slick and just beautiful to look at. Floor pans are original with no-rust and super solid. Doors, quarter panels, fenders, trunk, hood are also great, original, unmolested and original to the car. The rubber bumpers are real MOPAR from an AAR.
Interior: Interior is all original and in immaculate condition like the rest of the car.
New floor carpet was about the only thing needing upgraded. Car even
has an original Rim-Blow steering wheel.
Other: This car has the original fender tag and even the factory broadcast sheet.
The tires are new and the wheels are new Magnum 500's. The tire size are BFG 255/60R15s on the rear and 235s on the front with 15x7 Magnum 500 wheels.
