For a little while along time ago I drove on the street with a 440 six pack in my '72 Chrysler Town & Country. Spray painted "Wagons of Steel" on the wood grain, howling 4.56 gears from some old pick up truck, flat black hood with a scabby old JC Whitney "Super Six Pack" scoop, black steelies w/no hub caps and chrome lug nuts...those were the "salad days" I guess!

I wish I still had the Six Pack set up.

Car and Driver,,,,,,,,,,,September 1969

For the price,,,,,,,,they liked it better than the 426 Hemi
Top Speed; 126 MPH
Suprisingly, they tested it on a 'road course',,,,,,,,

There the el bandito bee that came colorado area. I only know what was posted here though.

I purchased this car new from West Colfax Dodge in Lakewood CO, saw it on the transport and fell in love. This was No.#3 of the first 5 of these cars delivered in the Rocky Mountain region.

Someone asked about original colors, "Bandito" was “Yellow” body as seen in pictures, “White” Bee band stripe, “Black” vinyl top. Put 500 road miles on the new car then changed to 4.56 gears, Cyclone headers and Mallory ignition, never pulled apart other than a few Mickey Mouse tests performed by local tech guys. (Nothing like today with the test equipment, gauges, etc). At old CDR in Colorado Springs CO they put a piece of wire in one spark plug hole – felt no bumps on the piston and declared the car “legal” ??? The car had only 1,210 miles on it when sold, like one of you said it had more drag miles than street miles.

Thank you for remembering
