On the con side no damn cup holders

PRO--440-6 pack and 426 Hemi with a pistol grip 4 speed and 4.10 sure grip drivelines

CON--that little MAIN power wire (12 gauge if i remember right) that all mopars
used in the main body plug that would show no outwardly signs of any problem and
would let you down at the most inopportune time and then make you chase it forever
unless you knew exactly what you were looking for.

ask me how i know :eyeroll:

 

Pro: maintenance was pretty basic and required little more than a timing light, vacuum gauge, and a dwell meter.

Con: Carbs weren't so efficient, often flooding and washing out piston rings. It's no wonder so few engines saw 80k back then, even with scheduled maintenance.
