Posted already in a previous thread.. but good looking out. I’d like to see the VIN tag, just to verify. How many of those have ya seen??

I'm actually surprised it has power windows.

I like this one.. the rarity is intriguing. Those door panels thought!? Are they OE? No way, right?

With the muscle car delete package. Sometimes rare does not equal desirable.

No worries about this one loosing its drivetrain to an E-body...

Can’t imagine why someone would want a 6 in a 300. MPG has got to be about the same in such a heavy car and with AC. Maybe the savings on two spark plugs at each tune-up was worth it?

Maybe the insurance was cheaper? Some father promised his 18 year son a 300 vert for doing well in school?
Back in those days there were some who thought a 6 was much more dependable than an 8. But it seems like they were buying valiants as well.

It is a Newport but still. Maybe the person who ordered was old school.

I find it very hard to believe that this is nothing but a Newport vert that somebody first tried to make into a 300 clone (clown), then used it as an engine donor; after which someone else saved the rolling shell, dropped a slant six into it and made up an incredible story of a ”special order car”, and finally someone third, who is not very well informed, buys both the car and the story and now desperately tries to resell them.

Still need a pic of the tag, or at least the engine compartment. VIN claims to be special order slant, but no pic and it doesn't exist.

Somehow I feel hungry for a baloney Sandwich now.

I think when we see the fendertag the C for the sl6 is a G .......for 383-2bbl.

 

[bluefury361]

There is no reference to a 6cyl in a 69 Chrysler of any kind in the data book, parts catalog or FSM.
Base engine was a 383 2bbl.

We need to see the engine code on the data tag and/or the broadcast sheet.

We already know with 99.9% certainty it is going to show a 383.
