Well, it took me a while to finally get on this site, and would like to say hello to all of you guys from all over North America.
A little about myself, I have been a gear head since I was about 14 years old and have always loved my mopars. When I was young, my father bought his first one that was a Pink and Black 1970 340 4spd Duster. Man that was a fun car. That's when I got hooked on A bodies. So light and can make them go soooo fast..

Now I currently have a 1967 Dart GT convertible. It used to have a 225 slant six, the ol' leanin' tower of power, and I pulled all the drivetrain from it and dropped in a 537 HP 440 backed with a 727 and a 3000 stall shifted by a slapstick Hurst followed by the old 8 3/4 with .355 gearing. It has electric dumps on it run by a remote control which is a hit at parades and meet and greets. Open those dumps up, and it just sounds like war..

Anyway, that's my story and hope to all hear from some of you soon. :prayer::prayer:GO MOPAR!! :prayer::prayer:
 
Here's some pics of the car. Will add a few more soon as it is in for paint for the next 3 weeks.

Beautiful car, glad you decided to join up!! Welcome from the Mitten state!! Geof
 
welcome to the fray and thanks for the Mopar **** - nice nice - I've always liked those wheels on a A-Body
 
Got the car back from the bodyshop. Needs some time to cure, so time for me to do some trunk work. Any cool ideas or add-ons I could do to this trunk set up? Thinking of just building it all out of MDF and covering it with black carpet. Fiberglass would sure look cool, but might be a pain to take apart after or if trouble arises.
