Yes!!!!! Small world!!! Here's my story on that car......It was mid to later 90's I lived in Mo. and I wanted a 383 Cuda. I had already grown tired of building E bodies, and went to 68-70 B bodies, but then I got the hots for the 6-9 BB A body. I searched MCG and each one listed had sold...
I have to admit to having owned many Mopars over all these decades but on one 62 Lancer. I got it maybe 10 years ago and yes the tank was history maybe? or maybe I found a repop NEW tank that fit! Don't remember! Yes I do, I found a new one!!! Was it for a 62 Lancer? I doubt it! NOS? I...
If you buy this model, remember if you buy it, you and two other guys in this world will be its fan club. Lots of people will say cool, unique, different....but,,,,,, :poke:
In other words, buy it because YOU love it!!
I say keep it and love it ,,,,,,,or sell it.
If you actually think selling off some parts you bought and can make a $ on is smart, do that and have a car to sell missing all those parts!! IMHO
Thats what I said back in Missouri, the last time I toped a hill and wiped out that deer and the truck! Wish I had them damned bright lights. So I could have seen the wreck!!!!
There's a reason when I have to make an all day drip and prey I get back before DARK!!! Because I am old and...
AS they say in Springfield, it is a fairly large country small town. As you have learned, very conservative in nature. The American War Between the States ended about 180 yeas ago, but not really there. Takes time to prove to the locals you are a good guy and not a spy from the North!!
Go FB and look up Bert Nipper, he is just N of Buffalo. Unless he movd. A grass fire burned up lots of his bone cars 10years ago. Lifelong Mopar guy. He knows everyone worth knowing. His name is Brent but he is NOT a computer guy and has lost his original webpage and thus Bert!. :thumbsup...

Like I told ya Doc, there are some of the best people in the country in Mo. and not ever one ( most are far from wealthy) is wealthy in terms of $.

I lived in Mo.37years and have built and/or had built probably at least a dozen pole barns and 2 indoor arenas one was 50 x 100 and other was 60 x 90. Pole builders like to out down a sheet of whats it called ? as a moisture barrier under the roof tin. Real thin like maybe 1/8 in. thick...
Remember with any crack "or larger" that lets in cold air, you are fighting a losing battle up there where it gets cold...
I had a shop in North Mo before I went to SW Mo that was about 30 x 60, insulated with bats and sheetrcock walls and ceiling. A small $200 wood stove would run you out...
One of my Mopar regrets was not buying an A100 pickup from a bud with a ton of old mopers back a few years ago.. I have had just about every thing else. They are so cool!
I have always said, look at what the locals do. (Unless you live where (most) all the locals are idiots!) (I did not mention any particular state in that remark!!!) Otherwise this will go to P an P!!!!!!
I have mentioned before check with Luckys Discount Lumber, just east near Seymore Mo one...
