Don't say that. You might not have an SFGT if you kept it.

I think that AMX may be an authentic factory super-stocker because of that very rare dual-quad cross-ram intake which is a one-year-only factory racecar piece from '69.

Good job! Yes, it was a Hurst built AMX Super Stock, super rare 1 of 52 with a 390 4 speed. No sale.

 

[72Fury]

Man, I really wanted to ride in one of them, but my dad said he needed to go. Damn. Yes, Dodge rules! Do you live in Louisville?

That sucks. I'm outside Louisville.

I think about everyone has had something that they shouldn't have sold. Here is the bright side, just think of all that you should have bought!

Probably started as a body in white ... hence trunk and engine bay.

I had a '69 Super Bee that I bought for $900. I paid half and my nana paid for the other. Found it while looking for a girls house that I was interested in and there it was, sitting under a tree. I bought it from the first owner. It had 112K miles on it with a 383/727 bench seat, red ex, black interior with leather inserts and the gator vinyl top. It has the N96 option.

 

[72Fury]

This is what I have left of my old 69 Superbee! 383 4 speed Ram Charger. I saved this when I put new 1/4's on it.

but my dad said he needed to go.

That's why the first, and last, car show I went to with my Dad has been about 40 years ago.

I thought a doctor had to do those?

 

[Furiousone]

That Super Bee sheet metal sure brings back 1986 all over again. I kept a big spring out of the trans when I had it rebuilt with a 2,000 stall B & M shift kit. I also have one of the original keys. I was still quite innocent then. That was a great Summer. Phil Collins, Steve Winwood and Anita Baker were ruling the airwaves then. I was in love for the first time with a really sweet girl named Kirsten. Her dad's side of the family was from Norway. Boy, could she kiss.

 

[72Fury]

Haha. 30 years ago. Where does time go? Yeah, Miami vice was cool, saw ZZ Top, Van Halen and REO...Great times for sure.

 

[Furiousone]

Ya, that seems like a whole nother lifetime ago.
Btw, I found a guy who has some back window stainless I need. He wants $150 for it, and $50 for the rear package tray, $75 for the black and chrome hood ornament(no engine size) and $20. for the lower front fender pentastar. Do any of these prices seem high? Should I barter with him? I tried to barter with some douchebag at an out-of-state gun/pawn store on a Remington shotgun and he said the price was not negotiable and he wanted to charge me $50. to ship($15 to him for his effort). I said "no way". What do you think about this guys prices?

 

[72Fury]

Sounds a little high, but locating the right part can be tough. On the flip side, when you try to sell parts, especially something not in high demand, the buyers are few. And they always offer less. So I would make a package deal & get a fair price. There was a junkyard, Mostly Mopar over in Indiana, Mike Zeller's IIRC, that I've been at. It's been sometime, but he would be a good start as well.

What are the parts for, and are they NOS or used ?

 

[Furiousone]

Mike Zeller's? What is IIRC? I'll see if I can find the address.

I sent him a request for pics of all the parts. I'm sure they are not nos. We'll see what condition they are in. They are for a 1966 Fury I.

If I Remember Correctly.

Ohhh, hmm. I'll have to remember that.
