Well, I forgot this part. Dang. Joined a few months back, or longer. I don't get on very often, work and life keep me pretty busy. I live in northern Idaho, before that southern Utah.

I've been into Mopars since about 1965, when I was six and my parents bought a Cornet station wagon. Darts are my favorite, I have a 69 2dr Custom and a 65 270 sedan. Also an A-108 truck that started life as a van but now it's a crew cab pick-up. Like the Little Red Wagon, for the family.
They are all projects at this point, and unfortunately 1000 miles away in Utah. I try to pick up some parts and such each year for the future build. I also picked up a 74 Dart Swinger, it's a factory sun roof car and I'll be parting it out if anyone needs any 73-on Dart parts. I'm planning to use the roof on my 69. I started with a 68 GTS, but it was totaled in 1984. The other driver turned in front of me going very sloooowwwly. Very sad day. I switched the drivetrain over to the 69. Now the 340 4-speed is out of it but I have a 400 (future stroker) and Tremec 5-speed for it.

Many many moons ago I started the 67-68 Dart GTS Registry. That was before the internet. I bequeathed all the registry info to the current GTS Registry, here is a link http://www.geocities.com/gtsreg/ . If you have a GTS please register it. Frank Remlinger runs a good show there.

There are many here smarter then me, but I'm happy to help others where I can. Enough 'bout me, I hope to be able to bring a car up and get working on it. After the heater goes into the shop, a dune buggy gets put together and a few projects in the house to keep my good wife happy.

I look forward to conversing with the good folks here. Alan Miller

Hey there, welcome, alan!!.....did you do the work on the A-108 or did you buy it like that? Seems like I saw a project like that for sale about a year or so ago in CA.......I used to have an A-100 pickup, but I sold it. Wish I didn't.
 
Welcome...was just talking to a few different guys this week about your area..I have a local friend that has a cabin and some land in northern Idaho, another guy is on his way to Washington state to Elk hunt and I personally like to fish in Utah and Wyoming, nice country..
Good luck with the projects, I should try that last part about doing things around the house, maybe it wouldn't be so hard to explain when I bring home another project for the garage.
