StillOutThere Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Wonderful big old "bomber". Had a '69 Dodge this color then called "B3 Med. Blue poly" and all women just loved the color. Low miles so this is a wonderful driving hobby car, IMHO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Nice. Be fun to take this on a day drive. I'll bet the 383 gets better mileage than the 440 would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say they would be close. A lot of weight to haul and the 383 might have to work a bit harder than the 440 but just to speed. I never owned a 440 but had a few 383’s in big cars and the milage was not good even with a careful foot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Jake Moran Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 That one is priced right. Won’t last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Jake Moran Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Checked on the actual ad and it is now at $9,600. To me, the factory magnums make it complete but dual exhaust looks new, engine bay and trunk are detailed. Why isn’t this car sold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 55er Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Same seller (flipper?) as the red 53 Pontiac convertible? Both cars are in Langhorne, PA. Both ads say calls or texts only no emails please, both say delivery available and both were listed 3 days ago. Coincidence? Blue 68 Chrysler looks like a nice car and seems reasonably priced but Newports are not quite as desirable as New Yorkers or Imperials. Maybe the wrong time of year to sell and big C-bodies just haven't caught on like the other Mopars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquiring minds want to know... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
