hello

['70-Challenger]

hey guys,
i'm '70-challenger as you can see. i'm 16 and an amateur car restorer/mechanic lol.
i'm buying a 1974 dodge dart this week. its the special addition(you know, wood grain dash, bucket seats, carpeted door panels) with a 225cu 3.7L slant 6. runs like an old lady LOL. no upgrades on it as of yet. planning to do abunch of stuff to it. i want to take care of the rust first. but anyways, i thought i would introduce myself. here's some pics:

BTW i'm a huge mopar guy. if i could have any car tho, it would be a 1970 dodge challenger with a 426 hemi(in green). i'll post up more pics later. i'm sure you guys dont want to see the old slant 6. i'll be dropping a 360cu in when i get the cash:snakeman:

It looks like you are getting the Dart from another Mopar enthusiast (since I see the Mopar stickers on the rear bumper).
