About
To much story behind this car. It's been in the family all it's life, my grandfather was the 1st owner, I am the second. Very rare car. Original untouched paint, and interior. Less then 72K miles. Numbers matching. Show quality.
Specs
Well this is one of 687 Ram Air III cars that where produced in 1970, extremely rare when you consider there are more 67 GT500's and Hemi Cuda's roaming the streets then these.
6.6 litre 400 Cubic Inch Engine put out 360hp, and 470 pounds of torque. 0-60 is done in 5.4 seconds, and quarter miles comes up at 13.50, at least it did when it was stock, now I have no idea what it would pull. But nothing faster then a 13.20 I would assume.
Factory Options
Everything from the dealership that was offered, except for the 4 speed manual transmission. It does have the optioned performance gear ratio, which not many received, unless they where drag pack 4 speed cars.
Mods
It's pretty much a stock car, it has headers going back into a 3 inch dual exhaust system with an X pipe, Series 40 flowmaster mufflers, and exhaust turn downs before the rear axle. Along with a Holley 850 carburator, Performer intake, and Pertronix HEI conversion.
