Got my internet back a week or two ago. Had car a little longer.
Got the 383 with a 2 Barrel Carb. 727 not sure what rear end is on it.
Should be 8 3/4 right?
Any who i'm just getting started on it.
Thinking I'm going to go black exterior and interior.
Maybe put a 6-pack on it.

Also got original block. Said original tranny but i didn't check i pretty much stole this car.

 

Any pics?

Sounds like a good base for a project.

 

welcome to the forum
does the rear end have a welded back piece?
if yes, then it is a 8 3/4

 

only the one ill get out and take some more eventually.

 

some picturez

 

THAT IS A HUGE TRUNK!

 

The whole car is Huge!!! Carry 8 people and that many more in the trunk.


Welcome

 

Funny.
I have a 10 inch sub that came with it and amp back there and i fit 9 friends in the trunk.
Can drive around with 6 in the car comfortably.
Now just got to find someone to do interior and paint.

It is the 8 3/4 rear end.

so for the 4th car i had from the muscle car era pretty sure this is my second favorite soon as i make some memories with it should be 1st.

 

i love those Mopar valve covers. you should get the matching Mopar air cleaner also.

 

lol i got a 200 dollar visa gift card for my birthday last year and i was starting to get charged for keeping the money on the card. Than i bought the newport and the gasket was leaking so i found something to spend the money on. Everyone thinks the engine is super nice now.

 

Curious on your guys opinions should i just get a new coat of white on it and keep it original?
Or Should i go black?
Im not a huge fan of white.
But im not a huge fan of black cars but i think it would look good black.

Also EFI vs converting to a 4 barrel or 6 pack?

 

not sure on the EFI thing
but on the color, if you dont like either white or black, and those are your only choices, leave it white
you could always paint it whatever you want

 

I don't like black particularly but i think if ever own a black car this would be the one.
Been looking at colors.
Anyone know a good paint swatch website?
