SOLD, pending pickup! The car is going to Morgantown, WV. The new owner hovered over it at Carlisle but couldn't get the money in time to complete the deal there.

Hey folks, Work stayed insane... If anyone is going to Chryslers at Carlisle this weekend, the car is there. Since the last post, I've had both dash circuit boards and the dash speaker replaced, and the tank sending unit replaced. The dash and radio now work. My buddy Mike did all...

Sorry guys, between an insane work schedule recently and a cub scout campout this past weekend, I still haven't gotten the pics. It'll probably be a couple more days.

I still have the MAC stuff I bought in high school for auto mechanics class. It lasts forever, works perfectly, and I Love it... For hand tools I use craftsman or the stuff from Lowes or Home Depot, as long as it is 100% guaranteed (thru the store, not mail-back). Make sure they fit...

Torsion bar mounts are fine. K-Member is fine. The suspension bushings are worn and dry and will need to be replaced. I'll try to grab pics tonight. This was a one-owner car before my buddy and I got it. According to the registration it only has 75,000 miles on it. Below is some...

It has the original 273 with the two-barrel, along with the 904 trans. The motor runs fine. It goes through oil and trans fluid due to old seals. I add a half quart of oil every other tank of gas or so... I add a half-pint of trans fluid about the same time. The leaks have actually slowed...

Hey folks, I've had my Dart for a year and a half. I took it from a car that had been sitting for years and turned it into a dependable daily driver. I don't have the time and money to take it to the next step. And while I love the car, it's not the car I really want and I can't have two...

I was active Army in the Old Guard (Ft Myer, VA) from 1984-1988, and then in the Virginia Army National Guard from 1988-2005. Huah!

Due to the warm weather, the 3-7pm Saturday car shows at the Rt28 Burger King are already going. This past Saturday there was a nice showing of cars but only a few Mopars. I had stopped by late the previous Saturday but there weren't that many cars out. This week the weather was beautiful...

Thanks everyone. It is a good starting point and a lot of fun to run around in. Not so much fun in rush hour traffic at 100 degrees. :-( It does have a copper interior, although much of it needs to be replaced. Unfortunately it is slowly killing my free time and checkbook, one issue at...

Well, it's now a daily driver. For the last 2 weeks I've been driving it everywhere. \\:D/ Since November it's had the following: ================== - dual exhaust - new 14" steel wheels - new radial tires (one exploded on the way home from buying it) - new wiper motor - new motor...

Jim, Does your cuda wear red stripe tires and historic plates? A buddy took pics at a Dulles car show and there was a white car like yours there... Don

I also figured that if I'm going that far I'll just get a 340/360 with heads and go from there. For not much more than what I would pay for just heads I could get a long-block. Moot point as I'm buying nothing for a while... Don

Jim, thanks for compiling the list. Assuming I can get free of kids soccer tournaments that weekend, I really want to hit Chryslers at Carlisle this year. Don

Thanks for the replies, and the info. Unfortunately, summer finances (kid's soccer camps) dictate that I'm going to have to hold off for a while.
