Wow, I have a super nice 66-396-375-4spd with 45,500 origional miles. For half of the BJ sale price I might consider selling it.(not really) My son is the second owner of an origional, beautiful 68 hemi Charger. Gulp, what would that bring at BJ. gm66 --- "Dale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Maybe sometimes underwriters aren't all that naïve. Many cars there are bought from the heart and not the head. Except for reported mileage there was nothing really that special about the car, IMHO.

Can anyone give me the details that made this one that special? We use Barrett Jackson, Mecum, Kruse and other auctions as comparables when insuring high dollar cars. Sometimes the underwriters just don't understand and you have to show proof. On another note, I have an old 68 Malibu out back that I am thinking about sticking a Hemi in and running it through BJ in the fall. Anyone know where I can get a set of motor mounts for that??? (all in jest of course unless I could find one of those Smokey Yunick Hemis).
