Thanks for reaching out. shipping might be a problem. Looks like the only LA 727s around are here in Trucks. Looks like I need to check on shipping options

Thanks for responding! School me please! What’s the difference between your 82 and say a 75? Lockup maybe?

Found one on FABO

Yeah the process with Hagerty was pretty easy - answer a few questions. I plan to insure my 65 Dart when it’s ready and eventually my 47 Dodge with them

First step to getting this truck registered here in Virginia - Insurance. I checked with J.C. Taylor and they require it to be stored in a secure and locked garage at my home. No can do - my 65 Dart sedan delivery conversion is in my one and only garage waiting on me to finish it So on to...

Yes Sir! Anything from a 62-65 dual cable to a 66-up and including a 518 OD for a LA. I can work with any of those including a core as I would get it to Dynamic Converters fir a rebuild and upgrades

I’m pretty sure the computer (for what it is compared to my 93) also controls the dizzy. I’ll know more once the FSM gets here

Agreed! I’d like to get rid of that feedback carb - it’s just a dinky little thing. The truck does have some kind of computer which probably works with the dizzy and carb. Would love to be able to convert the dizzy to EI. Research and probably find the right mix of parts

👌

I’m no stranger around carbs, just not those feedback POS, which this truck has. Liable to be some mods to the fuel system. At least the fuel pump is on the block and not in the tank. BTW am an old fart - working on my 81st trip around the sun lol!

back into the ranks of truck ownership. Just picked up a 127,000 mile 87 Dakota 4WD longbed. Going to have to learn about this one since it’s not FI
