If anyone knows me, and Eric does, he knows I have a radar for Mopars and today I was it again, I have a solid lead on another 71GTX 4sp car. I do not know what motor it has, all I know is that the owner has it hidden from sight. I have heard there was another 4pd GTX in this part of AZ but I couldn't locate it until today, I still don't have the address but I will in 2 weeks. I will keep you posted...... It is rumored that the car still has its rear wing and window blinds

and that it is a 2 tag car!
I have not been able to find out if it has an AG or not, and I still cant get a confirmation on motor.

I was told by an oldtimer, The original owner of my GTX that back in the day there were 3 other GTX's in Southern AZ besides his GTX.
There was a yellow 440-4 AG car that got wrecked and a Blue (engine unknown) and a red GTX that no one could catch, and no one knew what the motor was either. The red one seemed to have dissapeared back then and no where to be found................until now.

, WHAT motor does it have.....I am killing myself wondering......

Hey Nick.....can I be your best buddy?
I'd almost give up a nut or two (I'm married with grown kids anyways...) for a '71 BB 4spd car.

Mike, I never said that anything was wrong if it was a SSP, I would only be disapointed if I was going to see another 4sp GTX and it ended up being a SSP.......
