They are my little Belletts big brothers.
Orange one is a factory 'six-pack' 1971 Charger 770.The six-pack cars were all triple Weber 265 Hemi's.
Normally an RT Charger engine option,this is one of 100 of the 'luxury ' 770 models built. I bought it 6 years ago from the Dubbo area where it sat in a shed since 1981! (due to a holed piston).Motor now rebuilt back to factory stock ( and a bigger cam
) Colour is called ' Vitamin C'. Has the original 'hens teeth' Bathurst 3 speed box (Good for 95 mph in 2nd gear ,though I haven't tried that out yet),original extractors, dealer fitted LSD,and factory dual exhausts.
Sherwood Green one a 1973 VJ Charger XL. Was a roughy (still has the paint to prove it !) 265 Hemi ,column auto 6 seater when I got it about 4 years ago .
Now a hot 265, 'six-pack' Weber setup, engineered as a 2 seater, roll cage and race seats.
Has a Borg Warner 4 speed box, LSD, big exhaust,many suspension mods and has been lightened by more than 100 kg.
Handles like a go cart ,and goes like the clappers,( but needs a bit more grunt ! ) Its got 200 HP at the wheels.
Plans were to race it in supersprints, but haven't got around to it yet ....
Oran Park closing sort of put a damper on that
I have another Charger and a Pacer stored,will post them up another day........
Cheers !
Rod.
