Bill Maverick had an A-100 with a hemi, but that was a custom built wheel stander.
Yup , paisley vinyl tops, and my favorite, the "MOD TOP". I actually found a 69 Baracuda years ago in the wreckers that was a mod top car. I kept a piece of it for years but eventually lost it. I don't think it was a popular option, which would make one today ultra rare.

Not to go off topic, but for those that don't know what a MOD TOP was, look here;

Only Chrysler would be daring enough to make this !!

yes me bad 67 GTX

Options and colour make a big differece in price
You'll need more info to price it

I read on the net that the 2door GTX 440 Comando there were lots and the GTX hemi car there were around 720 built. Although there were many implants done there were only 720 cars actualy built. Again I read this on the net but when I go view the car I will get the vin # He made want to trade me my 36 Ford 3 window street rod. That is why I am asking. I dont mind making a deal but it has to be fair for both parties.

Thanks hemi43 he says there is a build sheet or he thinks it is a build sheet that is still legable. I want to go see him maybe even this weekend as he has a set of steelie wheels for my 36 Ford that I want to check out. if I do go this weekend I will copy the vin #s and look at the build sheet and copy down the Info from that too. I guess that will be the only way of knowing for sure.

If you can, scan a copy of the build sheet, I'll be glad to break it down for you. There should be a fender tag, on the driver's side inner fender, they are not very complete in '67, but enough info on it to tell if it's a Hemi car, the colour, some of the options but not all. The broadcast sheet has all the info. The easiest one to get is on top of the glove box, but not found there very often.
The car will be worth more if it has the fender tag, broadcast sheet, and matching numbers engine and trans., but depending on build date of that '67, it might not have the VIN number stamped on the block and trans., as VIN stamping started late in '67, and all '68 had it.
Clear as mud, LOL...Post up as much info as you can, there's a few well versed Mopar guys on here, I see.

Here's a quick ref, for the fender tag info. http://www.mymopar.com/index.php?pid=85.
And I use this one for the anal Mopar guys that like to restore back to factory original etc...http://www.mmcdetroit.com/Inspection/, some good research here.

Hey, don't quote me but I thought I had heard that there was reportedly a hemi wagon and an A100 (?) truck or van out there. Back in the late 60's you could check off anything on the order sheet and get it. Paisley vinyl roof on pink car with green interior and 426 4speed??..you got it.

hes had it for 10 years... not a Mopar guy...

Interesting

I'm not a Ford guy, but I know what a Cobra Jet is...

 heres a sample from E-bay

Ok I need help from the Mopar guys.

I was at a funeral of all places when a friends buddy approached me and we started talking cars.

Turns out he has what is supposed to be a very rare 67 GTX Hemi from California. It has 17 thousand originals mile on it and was found in a aircraft hanger. This guy has owned the car for over 10 years and has just been sitting in his heated shop.

He is not a Mopar guy and said he would sell it. He tells me it has an X on the front of the engine and an H.O stamped somewhere as well. He tells me everything is original and even the hoses ,belts factory stickers, markings are still on the car, the dash is not cracked or sun beaten but there is a slight tear on one of the seats.

My question is what is something like this worth I have an idea but then maybe I have no Idea at all as I am not familiar with the Mopar. Any educated Mopar guys should know and your help would be greatly appreciated

---

         How much does he want for it ?    That would get the Mopar guys help

i haven t seen pics but if a car of that age has the milleage so low it probably got most of the milles done a quarter mille at the time .......not that will change the value .......specially if your not a mopar guy ......and eventually you will sell it .....samething about colors combo only matter if you want to keep the car after all if your going to put big dollars on purchase you would want a color that you like ............but to sell to make profit than the rarest color will increase the value ............anyway for me it ll just be forever a dream car .....my first fast ride with my dad driving was in that exact same ........red and black automatic

I've been using NADA guide for a few years also, I use it regularly for doing appraisals http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars. It's a fairly accurate site, Grundy's is also good, if you like B-J type of values.

if someone ain t a mopar guy it ain t worth .........
if your buying it to make money the worth don t matter ........what counts is only the profit your going to make

as for i d pad on engine ,,, 2 - 14 - 21 , Feb 14 th - 21 engine built that day... there should also be C on that pad ,may be faint stamp though ...

Did you copy vin tag ,,on door jam ..

Did you by chance take a pic of fender tag , those numbers appear over big and little letters , easier that way ..

As for going by price guides, dont bother , the price of had the bottom fall out of it , good news is its making a come back , decent driver car , 55 -65 right now depending on car it self,, did you get any pics , was there a sheet ......

kevin1961@live.ca

Yes I took a picture of the vin tag, he could not find the build sheet but he knows he has it somewhere. There is also an X scribed into the block on the left hand side. The X has a square box outlining it. I did not get the door tag I never even thought about it. I will try and post a photo later the car does only have 17000 miles on it and 3000 were put on it when it was driven from Califonia to Ontario The car still has the black plates from 1983 on it.

Top Row 5 4 1

Second Row 1 15 1 2

Third Row RS23 73 5 485 424 26903

The Stamping on the front left hand side of the block reads HO 426 followed by what looks like a malteese cross then another number under that 2-14-21

Us Mopar guys are on the edge of our seats right now !! We need lots of pictures, especially of the build sheet if the Seller finds it !!

He is not a Mopar guy and said he would sell it.

 

 

I'm guessing he will want 40-50 thousand for it    add 40-50 for a restoration and you have a nice trailer queen

---

 That's too much !! If this car was picked up for 30K, after restoration it would only be worth the money that was put into it. It's not 2007 anymore, and even though it's a Hemi car, it's not one of the rarest.

Here's what the car is worth according to Hagerdy;

 Actually, my ass IS fake ... thanks for noticing 

ITs legit ,   Its a real car  ,,   73 tells you that  ,  great find  ,,  buy a lottory ticket , 

In 67 gtx could get loaded with quite a few options ,  The body its self should have the following ,  26 inch rad with shroud ,  big torque boxs in front of leaf springs ( hemi only in 67 )   enough leaf springs to level out a tank ..the front K member is a hemi only item and should have what we call a skid pad welded to front bottom of it ,,,cant miss it,,  front torsion bars are bigger ,   all brakes should be 11 inch  ,  if its a power brake car ,  there should be a braket between booster and firewall ,  that bracket lifted booster to be able to take drivers valve cover off ,  hemi only ...If its a steel wheel car,  those would be hemi only as well ,   hemis are a special animal ,   only thing better that year would be an R O 23 car ,, factory race,  dragon lady  , i think dick landy  as well ..   there was no roadrunner yet ,,  that was pretty much the top dog that year ,,could be ordered fully optioned or bare bones .  the fender tag is there and in very nice shape , that 73 on that tag is a dead give away its a 426 car  .  each engine had diff numbers ,  even if the guy doesnt have sheet ,  you have the inner fender tag ,  price stays the same...  every 1 has a once in a life time find ,  you found yours .   i will decipher tag    and send to you... awesome find....

 OK !! Opinion ignored !!

This is the VIN number that Modfather gave us;

RS23 73 5 485 424 26903

I'm not sure where this number came from , because it doesn't look like a VIN number, even though "RS23" is correct for that car.

The R stands for Belvedere, which is what the GTX was based from.

23 designates body style, which is correct for a 2-door hardtop

Now the next letter should be a "J" if it's actually a hemi car.

Ususally it's easy to see the VIN number from 68 and up cars, but on 67 it is located on the driver's door jam. This is the number we need !!
