EXTERIOR

The body is exceptionally straight and fits square and flush, with no visible rust, damage, or problem areas. The Lemon Twist finish has a glass-like appearance. Black Hemi hockey-stick stripes, racing mirrors, rear spoiler, Shaker hood, and blacked-out tail panel complete the high-impact presentation.

The front and rear bumpers were rechromed. Factory road lamps, excellent grille, new hood pins, straight stainless trim, and an original antenna remain in place. The vinyl top appears new, and the windshield was replaced. The 15-inch Rallye wheels are in excellent condition and wear correct Polyglas reproduction tires.

INTERIOR

The black interior features an excellent dash pad, Rallye gauges, factory AM/FM radio, original steering wheel, and console with Slap Stik shifter. The seats have been reupholstered, while the carpet, door panels, and headliner were renewed. The dome light works, and a complete set of original seat belts remains with the car.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT

A period-correct 426 Hemi produces 425 horsepower. Factory-style dual-quad induction sits beneath the ram-air scoop, while headers provide the principal performance upgrade. The remaining presentation is stock and detailed, including crinkle-finish valve covers, reproduction hoses and clamps, overflow and washer bottles, horns, alternator, pulleys, and wiper motor.

Heavy-duty cooling equipment includes a 26-inch radiator, fan shroud, and power-steering cooler. Hidden VIN stampings on the core support and cowl match the car, and the engine bay is finished in Lemon Twist.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT

The underside of the trunk lid, jamb, and trunk compartment are finished in gloss yellow. Equipment includes a collapsible spare, Chrysler air bottle, jack assembly, replacement mat and weatherstrip, and the correct decal.

CHASSIS AND UNDERSIDE

The steering and suspension appear rebuilt. Heavy-duty Hemi suspension includes upgraded springs, torsion bars, shocks, and sway bar. The solid floors, frame rails, and rocker panels support a renewed fuel system. A large-diameter exhaust system uses electric cutouts and Flowmaster-style mufflers.

The 727 TorqueFlite has been serviced and carries a fresh pan. A Dana 60 heavy-duty rear axle with 3.54 Sure Grip gearing forms the high-performance axle package.
