..not sure what to say here..
first car: '73 Charger w/400 lime green, and looong azz 2.73 gears. I put a '68 440 in later and shredded the front fender with an old tire at 135mph...
2nd car: '70 twister Duster 340 4 sp orange, 3.23's (roller) put a stock 440 in that and some N50's. A 383 landed in it after a connecting rod went on strike. fun car.. took out a lot of bowties and blue ovals with that..
3rd car: '73 Challenger 340 Ralley 4sp brown, (roller) 383, and 3.23's. Good runner. Got tired of shifting the handle, and put a 727, 10", SS springs and 3.91's in it. too much fun ! traded that for some Marriage Vows...
4th.. car: actually a '72 D100 360, 3.23's, 2 tone green. Needed something more, sensible. But I put a cam in it anyway :0 ( An amp fire took that from me, it's black now..) I used that to pull my second wife (car #5) after my divorce
5th car: '70 Cuda 383 GoManGo. ahhhh … 383 1.0, 383 2.0- 2.1, 383 3.0-3.1-3.2, and a 452. 3 converters, GER 10", Munsinger 9", and a ATI 8" all 3 underwent 2 adjustments..
Trans went from stock to an all aluminum drum workhorse that sported a low gearset for a while too. Gears: 3.91's, 4.30's, 4.88's, 5.13's, back to 4.88's. 4 carbs, 3 shifters, 2 sets of wheels, 3 tachs, 4 sets of heads, 6 camshafts, 2 hoods, 27 sets of slicks and a full head of hair.. wish I had my money and my hair back after that one.. ET's: 13.40's ~ 10.teens Sold. it's a Stock Eliminator car now.
6th car: '72 Challenger. ..and wouldn't you know it, ANOTHER ROLLER. Started out brown, but I had it painted white to represent my purity. (if you believe that !! ) lol
I put the running gear out of the deceased D100 in it. I built 360 2.0 when a C4 vette passed me once I got to 110. I was safe after that.. sold that a year after my second marriage vows..
7th car/truck: 01 Dakota R/T bronze, 3.91's. The OE 5.9 got several upgrades. Ported kegger Int, Harlen Sharp 1.7 rockers, Gibson shorties, Coil, shift kit. etc. Totaled that in a head on collision. poor guy.. he serve me so well. I suffered a broken femur.
8th car/truck: 2012 Ram 1500 R/T, 4.11's Red. cold air, ported TB, Hemi Fever tune. I use that to tow car #9
9th car: 1963 Dart GT same color code as my Ram. 360, 12.34:1, Solid Ft tap, ported ProComps, W5 Int, Dougs headers, Turbo Action 10" (for now) 904 MRVB, 4.11's (its a street car)
Your pretty much up to date now.. Other than the fact, I spent enough money, in the last 26 yrs, to fund the CIA for a year, but I'm having more fun than ever!
 
Thank you, gentlemen !!
