That's a good looking car. Never heard of the Super Light but it's a bad-*** option... On a vert too!

Yep cool car... the last I saw of mine it was headed to Alberta with 3 crazy Albertans :) driving her...
Mine was originally a 318 car, but I detailed a 383 to replace that... no superlite but I still have an NOS grill.

That is Brent old car.... He added the power windows, cruise, and superlite just to name a few options. Gorgeous car I swore I would own when he was willing to sell. It came up for sale when I wasn't expecting it.

It needs the wheel covers put back on

Ooh, I can't say I'd rather see wheelcovers over those chrome road wheels. What's with the rat under the front tire?, well at least there's not a stuffed child leaning against the bumper.

I am totally with Dave.
I hate 15" Magnums. Those are for Fords. Not Mopars.
In general Magnums do not belong on a Fuselage C

I can see where you guys are coming from. I'm not crazy about B body Rallye's on pre-70 cars myself so I can get what you are saying I think

How about some 15" C body Rallyes then ???

I have no problem with seeing 15" Magnum 500 wheels on a Mopar though, B or slab Cs

No, they didnt come on the 69. Youd have to go with the Kelsey Hayes wheel for a factory wheel... The car had the 8 hole covers and it should keep them, those covers are cool
