Q-Code is a high performance engine. The Landau package included a special rear seat configuration, plus other equipment that was not included in the base car. !Q-code engines are not common to begin with, and to find that with the luxury package is likely very uncommon indeed.

66 Bird Q code in the VIN# stands for a 428 Engine with a c6 Transmission.

I have a Q code Tbird Im restoring except it doesn't have an engine/trans. I will try and find a 428 when I finish the body/interior. May not be an exact match and surely not numbers matching.Maybe even a stroked 460! Want to change the color also since it is a cream color with black interior. Thinking of Plum Purple like the Dodge Challenger. An kid in an old man body! I know! but its my car and its not super rare and don't have the engine anyways. What do you guys think? Wife is no help!
