73 six pack

Post by aerodynamic » Mon Jan 29, 2007 10:59 pm

As long as I'm surfing the waves of inaccurate EBAYers, here's a 73 with a 78 six-pack.

Back in the day I ALWAYS had a six pack in my 73 Road Runner. Oh wait, that was Budweiser. :beer:

I think that's the "B" code engine.

So what is the problem? he clearly states its a 78 440 with a six pack.no where does he say its original

BRIAN
Its not numbers matching
It doesn't run on pump gas
And it doesn't purr like a kitten

pack of lies

The engine is from the rare '78 Six Pak Cordoba'....It came with the
optional corinthian leather air cleaner to match the seats.

Man... I even remember the commercial. It had Hervé Villechaize & Ricardo
Montalban melting the hell outta the tires.....Hervé was hollerin' Duel plane
Duel plane. ...little known trivia there...

If I wasn't prejudice against midgets I totally woulda ran out and bought
one...Man I can't believe I let that one get away!!!

Hey 1blue...

"This Roadrunner has a 1978 440 six-pack engine"

It's not clear to anyone other than us Mopar freaks that they didn't make that in '78, but it is of course up to the buyer to do the research. Nice car though.

We would infer that he meant a 78 440 block, but it definately is worded wrong and would be misleading to non-mopar people.
