Looks ok, but I have a feeling it could be Swiss-cheese underneath.

Location: Perth Australia		The rust escaping from under the trims ring alarm bells for me, it looks like a salty car

Says it has a stroker 383 in it, how would he prove that, and why not take an engine bay picture?

I am not a buyer and I dont really follow the Chryslers and Desotos closely, but theres a saying that
goes like "its good to be optimistic", I think these guys are optimists

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada		By "stroker 383" he could simply be referring to the Raised Block 383 which has a smaller bore and a longer stroke than the standard B block 383. The Raised Block 383 was supplied as standard equipment on the US built 59-60 Chrysler Windsor and Saratoga.

Location: Arizona		R vs RB 383's. Surely there must have been many arguments over which was "fastest" back in the day. Which was "fastest"?

B vs RB 383's. Surely there must have been many arguments over which was "fastest" back in the day. Which was "fastest"?


Off the line I would say the B-383 rather than the RB.

B-383 bore / stroke 4.25 x 3.38
RB-383 Bore / stroke 4.03 x 3.75  

  Complete rundown on the B and RB engines from Allpar.com

Location: Parts Unknown		There is a reason the B-block 383 lasted until the late 60's and the RB did not.
