I think the XP is probably right, - it's the 'J' that's wrong.

Is it this one?

I'm going to say this....
If the VIN says XP29J8B123456.... Then it's a fake.

This is a dodgy VIN, and therefore a dodgy car.
If I see it at the Nat's I'll show it's a wrong 'un.
Keep away from it.

Something's not right here.
Either that, or he's just found a previously unknown 1 of a kind. Unlikely.

It has happened before though. Galen Govier has a base 68 Coronet with a factory installed Hemi and a J on the VIN.

Don't hold your breath.
The tag is clearly a fake.

Very often Ford and GM people are just 'passing through' then go and get into something else. Mopar people are usually in it for the long haul. Mopar people stay Mopar.

What a load of roadblocks I just read.

This has to be the best "Amphicar" ever..

Bodie from the Professionals. Died of cancer in California age 67.

Very sad news indeed.
I always thought he would have made a good James Bond. Instead we got the poofy Roger Moore.

I don't think anyone would do that Les.

Yes, I remember use of this stuff being outlawed many years ago.... Much too dangerous.

Yep EFI on a vintage style intake, best of both worlds. Thing is, you're putting it into an old car because you like the look of it, so the motor needs too look right too IMO. Then you might as well use an old motor too. There are some great small block engines available now, just right for an A bo...
