My weekend ride:
'68 Chrysler 300
440 w/Holley pro-jection system, 727 tranny, 3.83 posi rearend, I calculate approx. 345 HP
Car is almost 20 ft. long, and weighs damn near 2 tons.
I've had it up to 140 mph, before the shaking made me slow down
.
All drum brakes make it like trying to stop a tank.
Original 120,000 miles, was almost perfect shape until some asshole backed into the driver's door (see pic)
I dig the hide-a-way headlights, and the sheer size of this beast.
When is the last time you saw a car that had 2 ashtrays on the front dash, one for driver and another for the passenger.
I can also fit 6 fat chicks and a keg of beer in the trunk.
I keep the fenderskirts in the trunk, so the local punks won't steal them. Cost me an arm & leg to replace last time.
BTW, I kind of inherited this car. A good friend of mine was murdered a couple years ago, and his parents couldn't stand to look at it anymore, so they gave it to me to keep it in the circle of friends.
