The Cons:::: It has a Chevy 350 engine in it...............:yuk:

Chevy engine in a Chrysler????? Sacrelige

Besides, What is so hard about finding MoPar engine parts? A little more expensive than SBC, but still very easy to find.

I've heard about the rare 350 chevy option for years, but have never actually seen one till now. Why hasn't someone snapped up this jewel?

The guy probably had both cars torn apart at once and accidentally swapped motors. Who hasn't done that?]

A Chrysler with a Chevy motor - Value of the car to me..zero. What I would pay for it...zero. But someone will buy it.

Me too. But what are the options. I don't wish it was crushed or in a derby. I think just maybe someone will put a Chrysler motor back in her some day.

Probably used a 350 turbo or a 400 txsm and butchered all the engine and txsm mounts.

 

[commando1]

Exactly what I was thinking.
With an ugly hole in the floor for a cheap racer-type floor shifter...

And probably has a hell of a vibration at 60mph+
