[benlavigne]

Nick seems like a cool guy...I'm sure we would get along great !   I'll have to watch the whole video when I get more time..

He's genuinely a good guy, his place is a hangout for car guys on the weekend!

Must have been a 71 B-body...no U -code E-body in 71

That is true! no U code's in 1971 E-body's.

Then I guess I don't know what U code stands for. I thought is was 440.

Watched the whole video and enjoyed it very much. Nick seems like a great guy. I'd love to own that Alpine White Challenger! Love the movie and there is something special about a white Challenger. Congratulations to Nick!

@benlavigne Beautiful Challenger! Congratulations to you also!

"U" does stand for a single 4bbl 440.
In 1971 there were NO E BODIES manufactured with a 440 4bbl engine as an option. Only available in 1970.
In 1971, if you wanted a 440 in an E Body you had to order  "V" code which came with three 2 bbls.

Stephan ( @SF-Resto ) did a great job as usual on the wiper motor and other components for NIck's Challenger!

Hmmmm. Not sure what to make of this. In 1982 I had a 1971 440 4 sp R/T. Single 4 bbl. Pistol grip. I got it from the original owner. He claimed it was as he bought it new other than the front end damage. Based on what I know of the original owner, I am still in contact with him, I am willing to believe you could get a 4bbl 440 in '71. Or he was able to for some reason.

You might want to try and dig up something like an old insurance slip or something to verify the VIN....you might be surprised what you find...If it was a 1971 Ebody with a "U" code in the VIN it's truly a one of none
