More than 6 pages in and still no K-car? Still see them driving around in mint condition.

Once they cancelled Night Heat, there was no one buying them!

My parents bought a new Dodge Aries wagon in 1984. Sometimes it would start when it was cold. Sometimes....

I'll raise you a Chevette. 4 door no less.

I had one like this when I was in high school.

My BiL has a similar car to this one, '70 Mach I in Grabber Orange with a shaker scoop and a 351C.

It was an original Californian Palm Beach car and still has less than 50k miles.
He put a pile of cash into it a few years after he bought it a couple of decades ago.

There’s something about late 30’s Mopars I just love. The simplicity. The styling. The engineering.

Pat Priest I believe and that just shows what can be done to a 289. If you have a souped up hearse then you have to have a souped up coffin.

Not too sure if there still are fake ones of these for sale but if you're going to get one then might as well get one for the whole family.

There's one of these just up the street from me that might or might not be for sale. The wife says sell and the guy is not sure. Still has what looks like the original radio with 8-track. Not in as good shape as this pic. but looks driveable.

As far as I know this one has a 350 in it tho they did come with an inline inline 6.....a 250. The other engines for the '68 to '72 line were a 400 and a 455. This one's a two speed tho it would be nice to have either the three on the tree or the handbanger. The 340 was earlier and the 430 wasn't part of the Skylark line. Wildcats and the like.

lotsa room to squeeze in any GM engine / tranny into those ...

2 speeds were good for up to 400HP and the bands were quick / easy to adjust.
used in a lot of funny cars too.

gud ol' daze .
