couldn't that VIN above be a regular RR tag

  Im surprised these days someone would ask that -it would be far more rare than a Super Bird if it was-

FC7 V code

What I've tended to notice over the years about "running cars that never get started or driven" is that they soon(a couple of years) become cars that will not start without spending significant time and money on them ;D. In my case
I now have a couple of formerly running cars that get towed or pushed around the garage. You really haven't lived until you and a couple friends muscle a 76 Cad or a 48 Nash Ambassador into a "out of the way" spot, which normally becomes an in the way spot about 4 months later :icon_smile_big:. Just an observation :Twocents:!

no u code on standard RR  you couldnot get a 440 4 barrel on a Road Runner untill 72 I think ?

anyway only 383 , 440 + 6 or hemi in 70

  since they didnt allow the 383 to be put in the Superbird the cheap superbird got a 440 4bl
GO SELL CRAZY SOMEWHERE ELSE WE ARE ALL STOCKED UP HERE

1972 Charger gets driven every 2 weeks in summer it's cacooned in snow from OCt-April
1970 Charger in Storage, should be driven once a year to/from carlise but missed it 2 years in a row now, last driven summer 2010.

I'm guilty. I've got a few that are rarely driven.
This 66 F250 hasn't been registered for the past 5 years, so it only gets to stretch it's legs a couple times during the summer, driving around a few surrounding subdivisions.


Sorta the same story with this 76 F250, not registered in three years. It just goes on short jaunts around the neighborhood.


And pretty much the same with #3. I bought it with a dead engine in '88, put a new one in it & have yet to register it.



The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Half the year, yes, I suppose. One of the downsides of living in Minnesota.

Well, I'm actually one of the people who starts it up every couple of weeks and lets it run for awhile. My neighbors hate me, when they're not dying of carbon monoxide poisoning.

That's funny... I was just joking and now we have "Bird-Gate".  :smilielol: :smilielol:

No accusation intended, believe ya on the car...
1973 Charger : 440cid - 727 - 8.75/3.55


Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
      a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
      acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!
