Interesting story. Brother still owns his 70 Charger R/T. 440, 4 bbl, A833 4-speed, Dana 60 3.54 ratio. Sublime green and black vinyl top. Bought in 1979. I overhauled the engine at that time when I was in Vo Tech. A couple years later we put a pair of 915 heads on it. That's the only modification.

Rat rods. I give them a wide berth.

I hope it went well for you. I still have various automotive books from my time at a community College, '79 to '81. (I'm old)

Abscate, I did not know that. I have put that bit of knowledge into the memory bank. Unfortunately, at my age, when a piece of info gets inserted in the front, other info gets pushed out the back. I wonder what I just lost....

38 years of marriage. My wife is a stage III breast cancer survivor. 33 years in remission.

Disco Automotive perhaps. https://discoautomotive.com/products/ca ... h-catalog/

I have an HU-613 in my V70. Volume control on the radio is inop. But I can control it just fine from the steering wheel buttons. I just figured it's an old car quirk.

You might call the clutch rebuild people. I picked this one off the 'net.
