You sure won't pass yourself traveling down life's highways.
I think they're kinda neat, but I like Dodge Magnums too. There was
a 62 880 'vert on Ebay recently, I kept looking at it and thinking of bidding.
If it interests you, I'd go for it. It's worth a look at least.

rare
Gentlemen, Kinda need everyone's opinion on this car....I
know these were at the end of the FL era- the last of the Exner designs,
but I can find so little about them that I don't know if it is exactly
worth the trouble. It's not really what I was looking for, but it is
interesting.. It's listed on craigslist of course, and it is in
Indy. So- Before I make a decision and make the long trip with a
car dolly...Whaddayathink??
Thanks for the input
guys, Charles.

The whole top end was pulled to figure out why the engine
would not turn over. The previous owner discovered it was frozen and just
left it in the barn.
The best I know is the engine ran great before
parking it. Some time later the owner went to start up and pull it outside
to clean it and it would not turn over. They proceeded to take it apart and
grew tired of messing with it. He is 75 years old and not in the best of
health to be doing this type of job.
The motor may need to be
rebuild. Or I guess if it was mine to keep I would rebuild it.
The
car only has just under 80,000 original miles.
The paint job is very
shabby and needs redone. The car sets behind my shop where I work
from and I live 5 minutes from there so when you want to come by either way
I can be flexible.
Here are more pictures to see.
Everything is with the car, everything.

Hi Joshua,
Well it is nice to see
someone who knows the difference.
Tooooo many times I have seen someone
in an ad think that the 360 and the 361 were either the same or
interchangeable.
Just curious-
Do you know why the heads/intake,
etc were pulled? Do you know the condition of the engine? Rods?
Mains? Etc.
I have a couple of other cars I am looking at as well- a 61
Desoto and a 62 Newport that have to look at still before I can make a
commitment to one of them, but yours definitely is the least rusty at this
point.
I work at night, so It is hard to schedule sometimes...but I'll
see what I can do about getting up there
myself.
Thanks for the prompt
response,
Charles.

Floorpans and trunkpan is in great shape.
Rockers have a touch of rust on driverside. No other rust I can think
of.
The interior is in good shape. The headliner is perfect. The only
problem is the drivers edge seat in front. See
picture
Thanks for the FYI but I know what I have, not my
first Mopar. The purpose in the 360 is to sale or trade for repairs to fix
the 361 not replace it.
If you want to come out and see
the car you can call me at 317-412-3567 and we can make arrangements. The
car is behind my shop on gravel. Prior to that it was in a barn for years.
You will not be disappointed.

Hello,
I am interested in this car.
I would not be
interested in the additional motor.
Just a couple of
questions-
How bad is the rust in this car?? Floorpans,
Trunkfloor, Rockers, etc.?
Do you have any additional pictures??
I am interested in seeing more of the interior if
possible.
Just as an FYI, the 361 is a Big Block motor-
like the 383,400, or 440. Technically, it is a B engine.
The 360 is
a much later model A engine- or Small block, like the 340 or 318. The 318
poly engine that was produced in the same timeframe is roughly
the equivalent.
The bell housings, etc are completely different
between the two. This includes the Poly motor as well, as it
had it's own transmission entirely.
You would not be able to mate the
360 to this car without changing all of the running components- IE, Trans,
cables, shifter, driveshaft, engine mounts, accessories, etc.
This
is why I am not interested in the motor.
Thanks,
Charles
