[Steve P.]

Silly Skippy, of course it has a CAM in it. The engine would not RUN without a CAM in it!!!! 

How's the 6-way drivers seat?? Good working condition??  If that seat comes out I want to see pics of it underneath...

Just for you GENERAL LEE lovers we put magnetic decals on it and did some more donuts.     

Awesome yeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaw! Great to see the car running what a steal this was !! Good luck with her and have fun!

Me to!

We put the seat back in last night.    I can still try and take a picture under it if you guys need one.   This car should be done in about 2 weeks (body, paint, interior)     any better offers now that it's a driver?

As of now Wade's going to paint it orange but no Duke's graphics.   It will basically be a GENERAL LEE minus the graphics that way it's easy for whoever wants it to make a general or have an orange car.

I questioned the value earlier as the selling price will always be lower for a non running car.  Never know if it was gonna be a simple fix or cost ya thousands.  You made out and got lucky on this deal.  I'd still be tempted to let it go for that 10k, but you're right.  If you guys can get it painted and new interior in quickly, it just may maximize your profits.  Good luck with it, whatever you choose.

a fairly rust free shell is going to run you 5 K  , dont sell it for 10 k or anywhere near that now its running and road worthy

Skip, who is doing the wiring??

Skip, who is doing the wiring??

Are you saying Skip shouldn't touch the wiring?   Skip did cut out about 10lbs of extra wiring. Now when you step on the brakes the horn honks.

All I can say is DAMN!   THIS CAR HAS A RACE MOTOR IN IT!   I think it has 373 or 391 gears with the sure grip.  We will make a short video tomorrow and try and post it.   I'm guessing this motors putting out about 400hp to 425hp.   VERY STRONG!     Very impressive built motor for a 383.  I've driven a few 383's but never one like this.

Just talked to the Johnny Johnson. He was the owner since 1985 before selling it to the guy in Las Vegas who owned it for 3 days,( He paid 12k) before we bought it. He said he bought this car out from under Warner Bros. They were running 2 weeks late to pick it up and he offered the guy $500 more for the car and got it. He couldn't remember what cam was in it but it has 10 to 1 compression and is built to race with a 3:91 suregrip. The trans. was built to hold 2nd gear longer until you let your foot out a little and then shift. He was not sure if its #'s matching. He was a great to talk to and filled us in on everything he could remember. He has been following this thread and joined the site. He is a huge Charger fan and still has a 69 General Lee.  

[terrible one]

Wait so the seller bought it for 12k and sold for 5k 3 days later?
