You didn't want it last time it was posted.

The "super commando" wording is used by Plymouth not Dodge.
I wonder if it is a factory L-code (E86) car.

And I was just going to ask what the difference was between a "Supper Commando" and a "Magnum"

i'll take it.......overpriced for the work it looks to need though.

i'll believe the 440 HP when I see it, a lot of people overstate that on a reg 440

 

[vdk2010]

Interesting, all these little differences. Good to know.

If the seller is using common sense...listing the highlights, then what isn't he telling us. There is no mention of how it runs or drives. Assume the worst. This car is worth $1200-$1700. If someone has deeper pockets then pay more for it and buy it.

The engine is orange & I think i see an HP manifold on the pass. side.

 

[mdh157]

Hey, you are right, I see it now as well.

 

[polara71]

I don't remember this one, kool car.

It was never listed

 

[polara71]

Power windows, cruise, tilt, buckets, console, power steering, power disc brakes, cornering lights, fender mounted turn signals, right side view mirror, air, ....... why not the 440 HP? It certainly warrants the possibility, especially in 69 when so many more Full size Dodges and Plymouths had the bigger engines.

It is worth it to the guy who wants one.

Yes, I do see orange and an HP manifold.......

...and no SuperLite? 2-speed wipers?


Just sayin

[fc7_plumcrazy]

sure the engine indicates it might be an HP version.
But the tie pin is from a Plymouth. Who knows if the engine is matching?
Maybe someone swaped a complete Motor from a B-Body in the past?
That is why I thought about the VIN/Fender tag to see what it definetly was from the factory

I see orange valve covers...those could have been painted at any time. Probably just your run of the mill 350HP 440.

"Just a run of the mill 350 HP 440" ......???? Something wrong with that .....???

I tend to be a glass half full guy and believe it to be a L code 440 from what I see.
It would be interesting to know the build date on the car.

It's hard to tell for sure but I don't see headrests .... Perhaps an early car. It's not unusual for a very early build car to be spec'd out with a bunch of options. Some were pilots, some built for regional auto shows and some to draw traffic in a showroom.

No matter what, I think this car would be a worthy project and a joy to own and drive.

Not to mention the "crunched" door that is not pictured. If crunched enough that would mean a door replacement from somewhere.

To think a big Dodge only 20 miles away. Been a long time since I have seen that.
