Hunyock Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 I just started this, the 440 is done. I am doing it OOB pretty much but with a few twists and turns. I am doing the "street" version but will use the lift kit for the rear end and the hood with the scoop. I am also using the race rims and slicks for the rear. The kit's slicks actually don't look much like slicks to me. more like wide tires with no tread. The color is sublime green with a tan interior. It's sort of a custom "almost legal" street rod. The kit John
mrmike Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 The Chrysler 440s were Chrysler Engine Turqouise, not Chrysler Engine Blue or Hemi Orange. https://www.turbinecar.com/misc/enginecolor.htm
BubbaBrown Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 1962 - 1971 all B & RB = turq. 1969 - 1971 HiPo 383 & 440 street hemi orange. Nice engine though.
espo Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Sounds like a normal day 2 type build, and I like that. I would have to see a picture of the rear tires you mentioned, but remember this is just about the time the 60 series tires started to appear on the market and anything wider would be pretty special at that time.
