my RR is gone off to Maryland, my new Mopar is here...

[djais1801]

For reasons to me, I had to let the Runner go, had to put some of my money elsewhere...but was able to grab another mopar to keep the garage filled...
It was a S.Carolina car 340-3spd, nom drivetrain, redone in original EW1, fender tag and broadcast sheet.
Upgrading to 4spd from Jamie Passon w/ pistol grip shifter, and white steelies with dodge redline poverty caps...coming soon!

Think I will cry. Will miss that bird. But not a bad trade off. It is a Mopar and that is good. Have fun with it. Russ.:applouse:

Too bad that you had to let go the runner... But this Demon looks awesome too! can't wait to see that 4-speed in it!

Nice little A-body I like em.

Nice Score! Was it converted from SBP to BBP? Can't really tell in the photos.

One of my '70 340 Dusters was originally a 3-spd car. Found out the hard way at the tender age of 16 that you can't just slap an A833 from a B-Body into one of those A-Bodies... :basketcase:

yes this is what's been modded to my knowledge
- drivetrain is from a 73 duster 340 474 lift cam, eddy torker ii intake, holley 670 street avenger, 3spd (going to my trans shop tomorrow for a 4spd swap from jamie passon. saved $500 over brewers (mainly because i drove 2.5hrs to get it NO SHIPPING, paid cash ). and tall pistol grip from 71-74 bench st. b body
-wilwood manual disc up front i think axles are 73+ it has a wider track
-BBP

The wheels in my opinion are GROSS and will be sold once I get a correct setup (going for white steelies and dodge redline poverty caps).

If the complete drivetrain was imported from a '73 it would now have a 8.25" rear as the 8.75" bit the dust in the A-Bodies that year. Can't really tell from your one rear end shot. If it still has its original 8.75" with aftermarket BBP axles then that is part of what you are seeing. The aftermarket axles use the backing plates from the larger cars and the brake offset is different (wider) than the original A-Body brakes.
