Hi All,

I have been a Mopar enthusiast since I was 16 (1968 Charger R/T), eventhough at the time it was probably twice as expensive to build/modify as the "others".

I joined FABO over a year ago but only visited the site a few times because my project/build has been on hold for over the past 10 years (kids, work, bills, blah, blah ,blah).

I just fired up the engine a few weeks ago and am starting to put the car back together. I find myself cruising the site for information and help more and more frequently so I thought I would formally intorduce myself. A big THANKS to the the people who have directly or indirectly helped me out so far!

I look forward to talkling with and getting to know some of you better in the future. Would also be cool to meet some of the "local" members.

Cheers,

Mike

Did the rotisserie thing and here it is with almost ALL of the metal replaced. Was not sure when or if I would be in a position to build another car so I put in all my wants in a mopar....BB, 4spd, convertible and oh ya a mini tub for that "mean" look.
