Today, I purchased a 1977 Dodge Winnebago for 200 dollars. These Winnebagos came with a 440 engines and the matching big block housing 727 TorqueFlite Transmissions.

I got the lead on the motorhome from the person that did the body work on the Dodge Coronet we recently restored. I will pull both the transmission and engine and scrap the rest of the vehicle.

The plan is to rebuilt the transmission and engine then put them in the Charger. The rebuilt engine and transmission will replace the 318 and associated automatic transmission installed in the Charger at the factory. This driveline along with some upgrades to the car's suspension will bring the car up to the Dodge R/T standards.
