For more pictures, visit https://67plymouthbelvedere.shutterfly.com/Engine: 318 cubic inch V8 professionally rebuilt by Kim Barr Racing Engines in Garland, TX in 2004. Bored .030 over, zero decked, line honed, original crank and rods polished/resized , Keith Black hypereutectic pistons, moly rings, Cloyes roller timing chain, custom grind dual pattern (mild) cam, 915 cast iron heads, stainless valves with 3-angle valve job, hardened seats for unleaded fuel, high volume Melling oil pump, Milodon pan and windage tray. Dyno tested at 330 hp, versus 230 hp stock. Ignition: DUI electronic distributor, Live Wire plug wires, MSD coil. New Mopar battery in August 2014. Fuel/intake/exhaust: Barry Grant Speed Demon 650 cfm 4-bbl carburetor, Edelbrock Air Gap dual plane intake, K&N filter, TTI ceramic coated headers, Dyno Max mufflers.Cooling system: 22” 4 row radiator, Flow Kooler high flow water pump, 180 degree Robert Shaw balanced thermostat. Runs cool, even idling with the A/C on in 100F+ temperatures. Transmission: Factory A904 rebuilt in 2003 with Stage 2 TransGo shift kit, TCI Breakaway torque converter, Driveshaft loop.Rear End: Rebuilt 3.55 Sure-Grip (clutch type) 8.75” differential in 742 case.Brakes: Manual front disc brakes, rear drum brakes. Suspension/steering: Original factory upper control arms with poly bushings, boxed lower control arms with rubber bushings, 0.920” (440/hemi) torsion bars, shocks, Hemi rear leaf springs. Front and rear swaybars. All bushings replaced in 2004 with polyurethane, except lower control arms which were replaced with rubber bushings in 2006. Firm Feel Stage 1 steering (less power assist/better feel than factory steering box). The upper control arms are creaky when cold…if I were keeping the car, I would replace these with modern tubular control arms and new bushings.Wheels/tires: American Racing Equipment Torq-Thrust D wheels – 15x6 front, 15x7 rear. Brand new BF Goodrich Comp T/A tires- 215/70R15 front, 245/60R15 rear. The correct speedo gear was installed to ensure that the speedometer reads accurately. HVAC: This is a factory air-conditioned car. The majority of cars from this era were not equipped with a/c, so this car stands out. You will enjoy cruising in total comfort all summer long, rather than sweating all over the pristine interior! All of the components under the hood were replaced with new/modern equipment- compressor, condenser, filter/drier, high and low pressure lines. All components inside the car are original- HVAC controls, heater core, vacuum lines, etc. Heat and A/C work perfectly. No leaks. Ice cold air. The water valve was rebuilt several years ago when it developed a minor leak…no problems since, but a small stain remains on the carpet up under the dash where the coolant dripped onto the carpet. Interior: The beautiful blue cloth interior has been restored to like-new condition. The seats have been recovered with NOS cloth and new vinyl from Legendary Auto Interiors; no burning your legs/butt or sticking to the seats in the summer! The seats are very comfortable and supportive...no sagging at all. Fat Mat sound deadener/heat shield has been applied to the floor boards underneath new dark blue carpet from ACC. Floor mats are made of the same material as the carpet and have "Belvedere" script embroidered in silver. The door panels armrests and bases and package tray are also new. The interior panels of the doors have been repainted. The seat belts, headliner, sun visors, kick panels, steering wheel, dash cap, window regulators, door handles and all of the chrome trim around the windshield, back glass and A-pillar are original and in perfect condition (which is very rare!). The steering wheel and horn ring is in fantastic condition…no cracks or gaps; by far the best I’ve ever seen on a Belvedere/Satellite/GTX of this vintage. The rear view mirror is also in excellent condition, and the dome light lens is new. The factory satin paint on the dashboard is original and perfect. Instrument panel: All of the chrome trim on the dashboard is in excellent condition, as are the A/C vents, clock, radio and all of the knobs and switches. All of the gauges work and are accurate, except the fuel gauge which reads just slightly below "F" when the tank is completely full. The chrome bezels on the gas pedal, brake pedal and park brake pedal are all in excellent condition. The glove box door has been rechromed/repainted, and I replace the factory AM radio with a correct OEM AM/FM radio (very rare!). The radio plays through a rebuilt OEM dashboard speaker and sounds great. A pair of 6x9 speakers have been installed hidden beneath the rear package tray, but are not hooked up. All knobs (radio, lights, wiper, cigar lighter, fresh air vents) have the chrome inserts. Even the emergency flasher toggle and the HVAC temp control lever have the silver centers, which are frequently missing. The inside of the ashtray is virgin…it's obvious that this car has never been smoked in. Overall, the interior of this car is as close to factory fresh as I believe you will ever find, and frankly is better/nicer than many professionally restored interiors.Body/glass: All body panels, except the hood, are original. Glass is in excellent condition all around…no cracks or chips. Just a light scratch on the passenger side of the front windshield from a wiper blade – I believe this could be polished out. All windows roll up and down smoothly and easily, and seal well. All glass is tinted, which is standard on factory air conditioned cars. The felt weatherstipping on the rear quarter windows is new. The bumpers have been rechromed. The headlight and taillight bezels and trunk tail panel are all in excellent condition, and are the best I’ve ever seen on a Belvedere/Satellite/GTX of this vintage. The tail panel also sports the original textured light argent paint in near perfect condition. New repro rocker panel moldings, door sills, taillight lenses, front fender badges. Body side molding is in excellent condition…these aluminum strips are very rare, and when you do find some, they are usually pretty beat up; these moldings are essentially unobtainable in this condition and are worth many hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars as a full set on their own. Wheel opening moldings and rain gutter trim are also all present and in excellent condition. I added the belt moldings (the chrome trim on the doors where the side glass goes down into the door) and a passenger side mirror. The C-pillar molding on the passenger side is pitted (repros are available); driver side is good. There is a very small area of surface rust at both bottom corners of the back glass, and at the bottom rear corner of the door opening on the drivers side. There is also a bit of rust in the front right quarter behind the front wheel well, and above and behind both rear wheels. I have replacement rear quarter panels that will go with the car. The trunk floor has some scaly rust as well. The undercarriage is rust free. There is a minor dent and scratches on the passenger side of the car just behind the door. All paint is original, except for the hood, which was repainted and is not a good match. Door hinge bushings have been replaced. Doors do not hang or sag; they open and close smoothly and quietly. Documentation: I have clear title and receipts for all of the work done to this car. I also have the original owners manual, shop manual, and more. Buyer will get two sets of NOS keys – one key operates both doors and ignition, the other opens the trunk and glovebox.EVERYTHING works as it should in this car…lights, horn, wipers, windshield washer, turn signals, emergency flasher, cigarette lighter, gauges, instrument panel lighting, warning lights (brakes, oil pressure, high beams), radio, clock, heater, air conditioning, park brake…everything. Car has a current inspection and is ready to be driven anywhere. It has a few minor leaks…a few drops of transmission fluid, oil and rear end grease appear on the garage floor every week. The leaks started when I changed all fluids to synthetic. Changing back to dino fluids might solve the problem. Frame is straight; car has never been in an accident.This car has always been garaged with a cover on it as long as I have owned it (12 years), and based on the condition of the car, I would say that it has been garaged all of its life. It has not been wet in over a decade. I only drive it on clear, dry days. If I want to wash it, I mist it with spray wax and dry it with a clean, dry microfiber towel. There are too many new, refurbished or reproduction parts to mention. This car has more rare and difficult to obtain original parts in near perfect condition than any other example I’ve seen, which makes it a standout in that regard. This is an easy project to take to the next level (replace a couple gaskets to stop the leaks, repair the few minor rust issues, and repaint)...you can easily do this work while you continue to drive and enjoy the car. Or it would be an ideal platform to transform into a top-dollar Hemi Belvedere or GTX clone. This is no worn out, beat up, rust bucket barn find! I’ve spent WAY more money on this car than I’ll ever get out of it, so my loss is your gain. But I’ve sure enjoyed it, so I got my money’s worth in that regard. My priorities have changed, though, and I’m just not driving it or going to car shows anymore, so it’s time to move on.This car is “Fast and Loud” when you want it to be, but is otherwise civilized. The mild cam gives a slightly choppy performance idle which smoothes out under power. The hemi torsion bars and leaf springs along with the front and rear sway bars give this vehicle a performance-oriented suspension with a great stance. The ride is firm, but comfortable. This is a 47-year-old car, so it goes without saying that there is no warranty expressed or implied.
