Whats the car show name? If its that Winter Chrysler Classic swap meet, then expect to bring a LOT of cash. I went to it two years ago and didnt come back with anything, the prices were outrageous for e-body stuff. One guy had a 318 Barracuda conv, that he cloned into a 383 cuda conv and he wanted 50k for it! and it looked like it had a 10 year old paint job! On the other hand, there was a very nice 68 GTX that was for sale for 12.5k and it was mint condition with a numbers matching drivetrain, it was a real bargain, only problem was that it was F8 green. I'll probably head down there this year too because I need a couple of trans parts and I read somewhere that brewers or passon is going to be there. You wouldnt happen to have a spare e-body tail shaft for an 833?? or a 3.91 gear, 489 case suregrip???......

Sorry to say that I won't be able to make it, I'm not exactly rolling in cash right at the moment. Just a little input on that GTX... come on, F8 is a great color. Granted, it's no Plum Crazy, but then again, what is?

It is a beautiful color when its new and on a sunny day, but at night it just looks black, on cloudy days it looks dull, and its not a real head turner. My challenger was orignally F8, but I like real bright cars that stick out, so im painting it go-mango.

Fair enough... and as the saying goes, if nothing else, go go-mango

This may be sacralige, but BMW Torred was made for a e body. Its RED in any light. I always thought a Cuda should be black but when we pulled into the yard where my 70 was, I said, that cars goin home with me. My wife claims I gave him the bank draft when he went to shake my hand.
