Drew, is that a 4 barrel 383 Gran Coupe? Does it have the cool overhead console? I think those are pretty rare. The 4-barrel version. :thumbsup:

unfortunatly no 4 bbl, but i put an eddie on it and it does have the console overhead, i think they built 8000 of them or so

If it was the 4-barrel and a Gran Coupe Barracuda with 383, it would be extremely rare, I'm pretty sure. Jack T would probably know. Cool car nonetheless. Any more pics of it? :mrgreen:

So you put a different intake and carb on? What type of carb, stock exhaust?

So that's your wife's car huh??? :roll:

I'll have to remember that one when I/we find another Mopar. :lol:

I can picture it now, look what I bought you honey, just needs a little TLC and she's good to go.

Seriously, that should be a fun project. Hope you can share it here also.
