If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

This might be the $69K listing the pics were stolen from:

That is the Atlas Muscle Car setting i believe.  Aren't they the place that sells partially complete cars, sometimes by design but sometimes...?

Missing the R/T skidplate on the k frame.

My understanding is that only the hemi had a skid plate, not 440 cars. Please correct me if I am wrong.

My 70 R/T had the skid plate and was just a 440

Okay, I am partly wrong.  ;)  I did some research and found some trivia I did not know. For '68 and '69 the hemi had a skid plate, the 440 did not. For '70, both engines had the skid pate.

I learned something today.  ;D

The 1970 440 Magnum and 440 Sixpack engines had the same six quart oil pan as the Hemi.

Correct,
and both K frames received the same skid plate

sccachallenger

if VIN and body match, was it converted to 4 speed from auto?

If not, what happened to the DANA rear?

Shouldn't it have at least rear torque boxes? not sure about front.

Anti-sway bar missing too?

Pretty pics!

Only Hemi B body cars had torque boxes in 1970,the only exception is convertible b body cars,they had them too. I have owned a 69 1/2 A 12 Sixpack Superbee, a 70 Charger R / T V code Sixpack car, and a 70 Road Runner V code 440 Six Barrel 4 speed car, and none of them had torque boxes.

ACUDANUT

"none of them had torque boxes".   I believe too many folks just want a peace of mind about them. Unless your abusing your car, you should be just fine.

70K and he can't afford a inspect cover for the 4-speed ?  Wait until it is full off grass, hay, trash and a nosey cat. lol
