Thumbs down

OK, on the one hand it is nice to see a beefed-up Mopar.

On the other hand and as someone who owns an '84 Fifth Avenue in mint condition (it was my Dad's) with a bit more than 50,000 original miles on her, I have to say...

What have you done to the last V8 rear-wheel-drive, top-of-the-line luxury car that so proudly once carried the Chrysler pentastar???

Default 4 doors

Hey, decent job on the car, but I would've made it a little more sleeper lookin', hehe, but kick booty for d-c. and to think, I was always made fun of for racing 4-door cars, till I kicked their asses, then they didn't laugh so loud.

Default ok guys

I didnt mean to stir shit honest
the rear end you all see will soon go away. I have finally got my hands on a 8.25" from a cordoba (which fits) so that and a ladder bar rear suspension will drop her down closer to stock.
and maybee some minitubs
dobetter: I am a workin man that sees potential in things. I cannot afford a 70 roadrunner440+6. when I bought the car a few years ago, I had no plans of doing this to it. In fact I was'nt really into Mopars then. But even the luxo-barge 5th Ave sparked my hi po intrest in MoPars! So I did what I thought would be neat and build a 400+ hp 360, build a bulletproof 727stick it all together and shell out the 7.25" rear. so thats why the 8.25 from the van went into it. it was free and has 3.55:1 gears
Its just for fun! makes the ricers cringe when the see it coming

dude, sick. i like it. makes me wish i picked up the $300 5th the other week...
and just a suggestion: forget minitubs. go full on, and put a baby seat between the wells just to screw with people.
on second thought, mini tubs would be much more tyasteful....

I'm thinking about putting my '67 Crown Imperial 4 dr ht body on to my '73 440/727 4X4 3/4 ton chassis.

Do you all think it will weigh more?

350 horse NOS shot. 44 inch tires. 5:38 gears on the front, 6:17s on the rear.

Default so far shes holding together

That 8.25" is pretty tough. but so far its just been subjected to burnouts. ALOT of burnouts. my 5 yr old will tell me"do a burnout dad, smoke that rice burner!"
I cant dissapoint the boy. What kind of father would I be if I wimped out on toasting a honda?
seriosley, the tires I have on it are very hard and do not hook well. thats why the lower stance, ladder bars, and some sticky hoosiers are in the works! Im sure I will shred that 8.25" after a while, but hey, I have a tow dolly, I dont care to break rear ends. Its not a sign of weakness, its a sign of too much (MoPar)power
if there is such a thing
just wait till I get the tunnel ram intake and 2-4bbls sticking through the hood!
