Glad I found you!

Hey everybody,

My name is Tom. I'm in Long Beach, CA. I'm now working on my first Mopar. My friend has had a couple of Darts, a Valiant and a '61 Lancer GT. I've done a lot of wrenching on Slanty A-bodies but until my recent acquisition of a 64 Dart 270, I've had to live vicariously. Coincidentally enough, I searched for a year for a Dart before casually mentioning my search to someone at a bar. A guy sitting at the corner yelled out "I got my grandpas' old Dart sitting in my driveway. A hundred bucks and it's yours". Sounded too good to be true. But, other than frozen brakes (resulting in a tweaked fender and bumper: See my thread here; http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=151699 ) and sitting for 8 years, fluid changes and a battery were all it took to get her humming again. I'm now trying to get the exterior and interior up to par. I'm really happy to have found this forum as I can already tell the people here are both knowledgeable and friendly. Hope to get to know some of you!

Tom
