I bought a 383 69' RR right out of High School in the 70s, kept it until the mid late 80s. The drive train was strong but as they age the steering in these and all A and B body mopars get loose and sloppy. Suspension and body bushings wear out greatly affecting handling and ride comfort. The engines and trans are good but like most cars back then do to the gasket material technology back then they develop leaks, seeps and weeps oil. Today modern sealant and gasket technology will remedy that. We have had several A and B body mopars in our family and they all lose ride quality. We have also had GM and Ford wihich maintain a quality ride much much longer. The full size mopars like the Furys from the same era maintain a quality ride much longer...not sure why.
The 1970 RR could be ordered with the 383 RR engine, the 440, the 440 six pack and finally the Hemi. I own a 70 with the six pack engine, pistol grip shifted A833 4 speed and a Dana 60 with 4.10 gears.
Another amazing car restoration
GREAT video !!
Thank you!

They didn’t have wings on those cars from the factory, correct? It doesn’t look right to me.
That wing was actually a factory option. It was called a “Go Wing”. It was available in ‘70 and ‘71 on A, B, and E bodies.
horrible tires
What's with the tires?? They look great! 👍🏁
You misspelt “Perfect”
