I am looking for a pair of C post trim pieces that go between the roof and quarter panel. If you have some you wouldn't mind selling please let me know!

Do you have any pictures of the car from when it was new or newer?

Also... Would you have any pics of the car from its former glory days at the track or in drag race form?

Lastly, do you have any info on the ET's and mph it ran?
Thank you...

I do have pictures both before it was raced and while it was being raced. I am in the process of trying to find them and will post them soon. When my uncle was racing it in 1971 I believe his best time was 14.90 in the higher elevation of Albuquerque. I am unsure of mile hour. At that time he was running a reworked AFB carb, hurst shifter, traction bars and headers.

Most of the 67 343/4speed cars were Rogues. I think one in 220 trim must be very rare.

Yeah, I have been looking for production numbers but it seems like they don't exist! From what I have read it seems there was only a hand full of the 220's. If anyone has more data I would be very interested to see it!

According to "Wikipedia" there were 58 343 Rogues, 55 with 440 trim and no mention od 220's. You have one and I have one. I'm sure that were others. Comes up as a rare car to me..............

Not to long ago Mark Fletcher had posted the production numbers on the X code cars.  Looked a few places here and can't find it.  Maybe Mark will see this and re-post it or put up a link to it.  IIRC the numbers on the 220 sedans was pretty small. 

Bill, did you ever get the 343 back in yours?

Not yet Howard. Still setting on the engine stand ready to go. For someone who's retired I don't seem to have much time. Ha, ha. Still doing repairs to my old '66 junky 4 door. The '67 looks good and runs great. Don't have the motivation to tear it down right now. Later, Bill
