I have been looking through the site for a while and decided to become a gold member . I'm still new and have been trying to figure out how to move around the site . I think I am finally starting to get it now . I thought it was about time to introduce myself and say HI .

I'm 28 years old and live in Lovington NewMexico . Its about 4-5 miles from the Texas border , 4 hours northeast of Elpaso TX , 2 hours southwest of Lubbock TX and about 2 and a half hours west of Roswell NM .

I have a 1973 dodge dart sport with a 440 . It has edelbrock performer rpm heads , forged flat top pistons , a weind tunnel ram intake w/ 2 600cfm carter afb carbs and hooker headers . The car has been mini tubbed w/ caltracs traction bars , subframe connecters , A833 4 speed trans , and an 8 3/4 rear end w 3:91 gears and a sure grip . It has the original sunroof with the hand crank and a list of factory options .

I also have two other projects I'm working on . The first one is a 74 dart sport that happens to be my first car . I bought it when I was only 14 years old . Its an original s6 car but I striped it down and I'm going to put a v8 in it . I just can't decide which v8 I want to use yet . The other car is a 1972 demon . It has been in my family since it was new . My dad's first job after vietnam was a car salesman in southern CA . He sold this demon to my great grandmother . It was the first car he ever sold . My great grandmother made them take the demon emblems off of her side of the car before she would buy it . The driver side still had the emblems because my great grandfather always drove and he didn't care what it was called .

Anyway thats my story . I guess you could say the A-body bug hit me at a very young age . I have a total of 8 cars , all of them are mopar so if you need parts let me know . If I don't have them , I usually know where to find them .
 
Hey Welcome to f.a.b.o.!!!!! uuuuhhhhmmmm......where are the pic's???:worthles:
 
I'm a welltester in the oil field . My job requires me to camp out on a location for days , weeks , or even months at a time watching an oil well . I'm sorry about not having pics but I promise I will post them as soon as I get enough time off work to do it . I should be getting off this job by the end of the week if every thing go's ok .
 
Well I just wanted to tell every one that I should have some pics on here later this afternoon . I'm still at work so I'm having my wife take some pics for me .

You know I run into so many people out here thats its possible to have already ran into him . In the last 6 months I've been on 4 locations with a fesco wire line truck . Right now I'm 14 miles west of Lovington in a bull pasture , so its been quiet . Not a sole in sight .
 
I just can't believe that I didn't find this site sooner . I've been into A-bodys since i was to small to see over the dash board . I've had 13 of them , and I currently have 6 counting parts cars .
