Show your classic non-Mopars
Hi everyone.Im sure that not all of us just own Classic Mopars.I know some of us also own classic Ford,GMs,AMCs,etc.
This one is my 74 Impala.I bought this car in 1996 from a 90 year old lady who was selling it because she was going blind for $1500. She bought it brand new in 1974 and It saw the garage most of its life.The 400 CID Sb 2 barrel had only 64,000 original miles on it when I bought it.It has power windows,tilt steering,Still has the original AM-FM radio which still works(I had a CD changer with FM modulator hooked to it)factory air conditioning which blew very cold air when i bought it,rear window defogger,disc brakes,cruise control.The car even smelled new.I drove this car until I had to park it in 2000 due to a tranny leak(which I just fixed this past weekend) and the carb wearing out and it costed too much to gas it up,but it was my daily driver until i parked it and out of those years ,it only gave me minor problems,such as the ignition module,alternator,thermostat,and a broken belt and just regular maintenence like plugs,plug wires,distributor cap,air cleaner.The car sat for a year until just last weekend I put fuel in it,pumped it and it started right up.Right now,it has over 170,000 miles and Im deciding whether or not to sell it to fund my Duster build,or keep it,as it has alot of sentimental value.Mopar,or not,it was a very good and reliable car
