and now for the ugly side of the car(for now but not for long). he tried to do too much at one time and screwed things up. he removed the engine wire harness from the bulkhead, installed headmen headers, replaced the radiator, installed a reman carb and according to him a mopar performance ignition kit to replace the lean burn. did mopar ever have a blue ignition box in there kits?

I'm not sure, but this looks very much like a Magnum I used to drive by alot just north of Wheeling W.Va. when we used to work at a coal cleaning plant some years back.

Congrats, glad that you got it if I couldn't

per the guy(lee) i bought it from an older guy had bought it new and two years ago he needed a van. so he found a van on a secondary lot and traded the magnum in on it. lee saw it and bought then started the...well however misguided he was trying to do something nice/good to the car. so you could say i am the third owner excluding car dealers.
