everything was better in the 60's it seems.especialy cars and music.I was only 3 in 69 so I guess i dont really know what im talking about.but in the 70's as a kid there were alot of muscle cars around still. even in HS there were alot of them cause they werent that old of cars in the early 80's

Like David Spade and Chris Farley, I drove from Sandusky, Oh to Minneapolis, Mn in a '67 Belvedere GTX. Mine wasn't a convertible, and it didn't get destroyed by a fat fuckin slob.

@Realone95 it did suck watching the car in that movie get trashed but you have to admit. Cris farley was a funny guy

This is my dream, from Hungary. Thanks for Plymouth and Chrysler to create this!

I see some disagreement about the original color of this car. Mine was exactly the same color. I believe the color was officially called "turbine bronze." I think thats what it was.

[dicarlo57]

@omahadave Are you sure? I thought turbine bronze was more of an orange-like the Chrysler turbine cars.

Gentlemans car my ass. Thats "The Boss" before ford stole the name. So love the shakles..Not!

[omahadave]

I forgot to mention the dash. That takes me back. You couldn't keep those damn cheap knobs on the controls. I have never in my life seen a 67 GTX with the little plastic knob on the heater fan control lever. Not once.

I drove this car in high school. Same color and black racing stripes from the factory. Mine was automatic. This shifter is not correct. No pistol grip till 1970. My brother had one with the hemi, blue on white interior. He totalled his, I totalled mine. Oh well.

[urparanoia]

@omahadave-I noticed the shifter as well. Can't recall if it was my 69 GTX or 68 Barracuda that had problems with plastic knobs on window cranks breaking. The rear spring shackles look a bit long.Chrysler had a great rear suspension. They mounted the rearend at forward section of leaf springs which prevented wheel hop and made traction bars unnecessary. The front of the springs were quite stiff and had a extra leaf or two on one side.The only problem was the long rear sections would sag.

i think the styling of these b-body is really a love or hate it affair. i even cant decide for my self if i love or hate it.

But! The rear roof pillar really reminds my captain kirks ENTERPRISE-A

the belvedere was more car for the money than what ford offered that year.it wasn't even close

[abulakle]

my first car was a 67 2-door belvedere.back in 1978.it was sitting in a garage with the front end all smashed-up.me and a buddy fixed it up and i drove that car for next five years.actually drove it from birmngham to tucson.it was this color but i had it painted red.i still miss that car.

[OldSouthernSoldier]

I owned a 691/2 RR. It was one of the dozens of mopars that I had or still have. They DID NOT come with the pistol grip period. If you saw one with that shifter it was installed by someone. You can look in any catalog and those shifters are available for the 70-74 models. Sorry.

[scottyv68]

@OldSouthernSoldier funny that i own 2 that came from the factory with them

[OldSouthernSoldier]

@scottyv68 It's funny that you are full of shit. You would have posted that in your first response instead of "Ive been a mopar guy for 43 years". My guess is you actually looked it up and found yourself wrong. Even the hurst web site list the shifter as 70-74. But hey, your imaginary cars can have whatever imaginary shifters you want them to. I'm sure you will prove me wrong by posting a video of your 2 road runners. LOL.. I'll be looking for it!

[Rico8458]

i wan to buy this and take it to cuba.

[scottyv68]

this car also has a hurst pistol grip shifter in it, which wasn't available until 1969, and is in no way original

[OldSouthernSoldier]

@scottyv68 The pistol grip became available in 1970.

[scottyv68]

@OldSouthernSoldier first year for the pistol grip was 1969, in the 69 1/2 roadrunner, i've been a mopar guy for 43 years

[OldSouthernSoldier]

@scottyv68 It's funny how NONE of the 691/2 super bees and road runners that have been restored as new have the pistol grip shifter. Those came out in 1970.

[scottyv68]

this car isn't zz1 gold, zz1 is a much lighter color, this car is copper metalic, and not even close to the original zz1 color

[BassRacerx]

can never decide wich body style i like on the gtxs but i like the gtx better then the charger and even sometimes the challenger

[olmecbones]

@BassRacerx I'll take one of each, please. ;-)

[olmecbones]

@BassRacerx My 'winking face' got fucked up! Stupid YouTube!
