    i will, i have to finish wiring the charging system on a friend's 63 falcon wagon tomorrow, then i get to start stripping parts. lots of prep for paint, a little sheet metal work though, just floor pans, 1 trunk extension and the tail panel.

    Im back in it. better, stronger, (hopefully) faster!

    I'm back in the game! I have finally got enough motivation in myself to do something with the ragged old car in my garage (I FINALLY HAVE A GARAGE!). I hope to build a solid 1974 duster with a 400 in a year or so, money permitting (tools and student loans, ugh...) i have the car, i have a...

    Few patriotic colored Mopar's for Memorial day.

    i met nick very shortly after he had done your barracuda, a few months or so i think, it was in 04 when i met him, you tell me how long it was. He was still talking about it then though. Mitch didnt live there anymore i don't think, maybe he did, can't really remember.

    Question about space Dusters.

    that would be my duster :) it's not an original 360 car, it was a 318-2 originally, that motor is in nick's 4 door satellite. 1976 'space' duster, 360 w/B&M flexplate balance adapter, 318 torque converter, 904, 8 1/4.

    General Lee on ebay

    hmm.. my mopar buddy's wife has a REAL general lee parade car, 383, with signatures. not a built by a cast member car. she paid a WHOPPING $2000 for it. Its in excellent shape and she drove it for a long time. When the engine started knocking a little, she parked it under a car cover in the...

    new car!

    well.. what i didnt mention is, my buddy is getting a 77 pick up 3/4 ton HD... with 3 extra big blocks and 5 sets of heads, not to mention the stacks and stacks of parts he has, and his machinist friend loves mopar... so if i pulled out the big block duster, it would be a 452. bigger inches...

    new car!

    for those who remember my old activities, i had a 1975 plymouth valiant custom (4 door) 318 car. since my last postings, i have graduated from technical school, and now i work on german cars in an independant shop. anyway, traded the valiant straight for a 74 'space' duster with a 360 4...

    Bought me a new Mopar

    i had a sundance that the speedometer worked but not the trip/odometer. also 2.2, but not a turbo. it was soooo slow (when i pulled the head off, i see that it was because of insanely large deposits on the intake valves). and a manual may not have been offered in that particular car, but they...

    its not a mopar, but its a DEAL

    well, a 350 is much cheaper and easier to find... and you know, if i could find a 360 ready to run for $500, id put it in there just to be a smart *** :) and i DID think about keeping the stock 305 and building it up because it just has less bore, same stroke as a 350... which is less than a...

    I saw the new "Charger" yesterday....

    the magnum, 300, and charger are all built on the same body platform. same motor options afaik, its all the same car with slightly different lines. IMO, charger is nice from the front, and ugly from the side. my only complaint is the use of a sedan platform instead of a coupe. albeit, they DID...

    its not a mopar, but its a DEAL

    i am soon to be the owner of a 79 camaro. its not a mopar, but for $400 its in excellent shape. body work, seats, dash pad and a tranny is all it NEEDS, but not all its gonna get. i think ill get my grandma to build the motor for it since they are so easy to do ;) j/k. im going to buy a slightly...

    Too Doo or not Too Doo

    id grab that 340 too, just for the fact that they arent exactly easy to find. and im sure it will be way more fun than a slant 6. i need to get a slant 6 and run it in my car... i need to improve gas mileage... plus it will afford me time to rebuild my 318.
