Engine & Transmission Picture #1

The Winnabego we recently purchased has been reduced to what you see in these three pictures. My guess is the remainder of the Winnabego is on its way to China given that country is buying all scrap metal it can find worldwide.

What remains is a 1977 Dodge 440 CID engine and Torqueflight 727 transmission. They don't look like much at this point but after each is overhauled and made ready to be dropped into our 1968 Dodge Charger they will be things of beauty.

The engine and transmission would probably run without being rebuilt because they only have 71,000 miles on them. However, as presently set up the engine doesn't put out the housepower we want and the tramsmission needs to be converted for use in a car versus a motor home.

Please visit this site often to keep current on our efforts to restore a classic american muscle car.
