I didn't think it was possible to make a '64 Chrysler any uglier (without being intentional) than the factory did.

I stand corrected.

Yup....all it needed was a scooped hood and diesel tail pipes. :doh:

Being that I was a little under the weather last night, this one bore a little more reading.

I notice that it came with a "Fire Power 390 CID" engine. That's a new one on me.
Can someone explain to me what the "original K-code" is? Perhaps it also had a 271HP Mustang engine?
Where is the functioning cowl on the hood? Is it hidden beneath the N96 scoops?
Can someone explain to me what the actual fuck is going on with that throttle linkage?

Realistically, it's actually a pretty good price on a longram 300 letter car, but there's still a lot there to hate.
