So ... I joined up here to buy, sell, trade, learn, laugh, bust balls .. like a perfectly good deplorable punk from sunny Florida's Space Coast.

It's official, Back to Old Skool ... so I got this one now.

Thinking of getting some big street tires for the rear and bolt on glasspack muffs .. a passenger seat would be good for thrill rides.
Need to rewire, it's like splice city under there.
 
This car was orange, now is a 'bondo in white' car. :rolleyes:
I love point cars but being too OCD they make me 'sketchy'.:realcrazy:
"Hey, GET AWAY from THE CAR" :elmer:

Totally understand mine is a 70 in the front a71 on the sides and 73 tail lights! Runs mid 10s all day! I keep meaning to stop drill those cracks!
 
Over the years it went though some changes.
The last version was Cop Car wheels 4 same size tires and the Dodge sticker which gave it a NASCAR Grand National look.
It's a clone, the way I wanted it:
68 500 code with RT grill, tail panel, door emblem trim mash-up
440 Six Pac - cast manifolds
4 Gear
70 E body high backs
Tic-Toc - AM/FM
No console - E body pistol grip
3:55 8 3/4 posi
NOS Hush Thrush w/ box tips
Complete poly upgrade
It went from NJ to VA.
Ebay - sold - $9,900 in 2003
OEM lift off and 68 R/T hood went with it.
Real sad to see that one go.

My 1940 Plymouth with my Mom and Neighbor , 1936 Farmall F-20 with the kids.
Stage picture I set up.

The 40 - All original 12,000, paint, mechanics, electrics. Suicide doors, had corduroy seat covers from day one. I remved them to find perfect mohair seats. Slight dings to fat fenders going in a small one car garage. I traded it for a good running Farmall Cub with a Woods mower deck. About $2-2.5k swap value ether way back then.

The 36 F-20. all factory original, dual fuel manifold, on 36" Firestone round spoke wheels. Hand crank only. I pulled a 2 bottom 'little genius' plow on steel wheels, design was originally for horse drawn.

On the farm with the 1870s house we lived in.
