Feature Car of the Month: Dean Churchill's
Location ;Arbor crest winery and professional models
I picked this car up for 3000 a little over 8 years ago; pulling it out of the field where the previous owner had kept it. The car was originally a 318 Satellite, factory red with a brown interior and a black vinyl top. It was a Spokane car and had been parked in1981. Since this was not a car I wanted to restore to its red, black, and brown original condition, I decided to do a big block GTX look alike. I started gathering parts and information to make a GTX look alike. Many of the parts being exclusive to the 1971 model year make finding all the correct parts very interesting. I took several trips to Las Vegas, Seattle, many back yards and farmers’ fields. I also spent many hours on the internet shopping for parts. After 4 years of working on the car with my daughter and friends, it finally came together just in time to enter it into its first car show, the Auto Boat Speed Show. The car turned out far better than I ever dreamed it would; it took best in its class that first show. I was totally shocked I did so well on my first outing. I have really enjoyed driving and bringing this classic muscle car back to life. I get a lot of grief being a Mopar guy having been raised in a Ford and Chevy house. But I just love driving and working on my Mopars.
The 440 is 30 over and came from a 69 imperial. An edelbrock sreet strip
intake,850 cfm. carb, heads and cam package are on top. A Randy ray built 727
with 2500 stall converter send the power to a 3.23 sure grip. The leafs are
super stock and stock for the right stance. The body was almost rust free with
the original paint under the carpet. I bartered parts and labor for the awesome
paint job. Valspar tangelo pearl, a house of color paint was applied at nelsons
on Francis by a friend. It’s a sweet ride and will dominate a cobra even with
4 people hanging on for dear life. At hot august nights 2008 in Lewiston the
owner of the liberty theater reserved a spot for me in front, as he liked it so
much. It pissed off the locals though.
Feature Car of the Month schedule is as follows,
February Durand Brewester, March Scott & Judy Bailey, April Ryan
Roberts, May Tony Herrera, June Jim Odell, July Norm Long, August Ken Watkins,
Just send a picture and information by E-mail or send to Glen Chapin by
the 20th of the Previous month.
You can use any
information or a story that goes with the car. If for some unknown reason you
want to trade months with someone go ahead you make the arrangements if
you need help with this project let Glen Chapin
know he will help you 208-683-1762
Thought of the Month: If a word is misspelled in the
dictionary, how would we ever know?
IN
1999 Chrysler released a 4.7L V8 that used almost identical valve design as they
used on the A engines after 1956
