my dad used to have a 89 dodge with a 318 in it then he traded it to a friend of his for a 64 impala 4 door. well the guy that has it broke the steering box and was wondering if i wanted to buy it its 4 wheel drive and needs a steering box and a tranny he has the tranny for it but is tired of messing with it i can get it for about 300 bucks should i???

Got any pics of it? If the body is straight and no rust holes anywhere, you could swap the trans out and put in a new steering gear box and have a really solid foundation for a bad ass mudder. Or turn around and sell it and make money off the deal

Yes. buy it.

I thought they had switched to the throttle body by '89? And I doubt the steering boxes would be the same

Go for it

iSlacker816 · Dec 19, 2011

Either way if he's selling the tranny with it for 300 bucks and the body is solid and not that rough, go for it!

mountaingoat · Dec 19, 2011
