Montreal Wing Car

Did a little weekend trip with friends to Vegas to the MATS, was there on Friday, went to California on Saturday, back to Montreal on Sunday night!

There were a few aero cars: (is it o.k. to post pics of tags? they were out in the open...)



























There was another Lemon Twist Bird also, but I did not take a pic, thought it was the same one I had photographed earlier...

Yeah, what he said !   :shruggy:
Inquiring minds want to know :icon_smile_big:

That 500 is only 12 numbers after mine.  Same drivetrain and mine was originally stripe delete also. Probably followed my car right down the assembly line.  I'd also like to know what they were asking.

69_500

Had very limited info on that C500 before now. Only knew it was a black car and a HEMI. Did not know it was a 4 speed car.

So did anyone get a phone number for the black 500? I know I could not afford it right now but do know someone who could and that would be interested.

Were not all Aero cars coded for stripe delete?

Good questions.   Answers?

My understanding was that all 500's were stripe delete so they didn't waste putting on the wrong stripe at the factory, then Creative put on the 500 stripe following very loose guidelines of white on dark cars and the opposite on light.

That was a new one to me also...thanks for sharing!

Any info on the orange "lowly" 69 Charger parked next to the sublime 'bird?   Interesting placement of a "440" decal on the fender

In the spirit of trying to understand, how does one know if a 500 was a stripe delete car or not ( unless there's 1st hand knowledge/pictures when it was new )? I mean all 500's and Daytonas have V88 on their fender tags ( or at least they are supposed to ). I mean, we all know they were stripe deletes from the assembly line to Creative, but how do we know they didn't have one when they left Creative to a dealership?

mmmmmmm Black 500.    Dats nice indeed.

Black interior, so... it would have had a white 500 stripe and with the repaint/resto or whatever... a stripe was not put on?  Or am I seeing it wrong.  I think it would look nice with a white stripe.

Here are my other pics of the Hemi 500







Unfortunately, none of the For Sale sign, sorry...

 Thats funny, the vacume hoses on this car are cut at the firewall. On mine they are cut at the radiator support just behind the battery.

That name is familiar, I think he used to live in NW Pennsylvania, in Erie or close.  I'd have to ask some of our other club members but I think that's a car that used to be at our show.

My 1st 500 had the hoses cut at the firewall and my current one down by the battery......

I noticed the lines cut at the firewall as well. My question is were they like that or did a previous owner do it. I asked Jerry N about his because its cut at firewall and he said he did it. The unrestored cars I have looked at, still have them going to the radiator area at least. And the few that I have seen that don't still go there, the owners admit they are the ones who cut them because they aren't being used.

ws23rt

Mine were cut at the fire wall. Was led to believe that they were all cut at that point. So maybe some had the vac can left in?

ws23rt

Along a the same kinda thing. Since the factory wire harness did not reach the new trunk light switch is there any evidence that that was addressed at the factory. Mine still hangs short.

69_500

Are you talking about the A01 trunk light? Where they moved the tab from the original place to the new trunk opening? I don't recall seeing any extensions, just pulled tight. Will have to dig through some pictures. Just curious, but did your drivers side tail light housing have the word "YES" written in yellow grease pencil?

ws23rt

The light is mounted as It was when I got the car. appears fac. The ground wire is about 6 in short from the switch. there are no markings on the drivers side tail light hsg.
