old man with ugly car

hello I just signed on yesterday I have had my 62 plymouth fury for 28 years and hav done all of the work on it. I am married and have raised 2 children. I am now saving some money to build me a 512ci and burn up the streets in the city, the stock 400 lean burn just aint doing it for me. Hope to get some ideas and give some advice to my fellow enthusiast, have a great day.

Welcome to Mopar Forums. Stroker kit from 440Source is the answer for your 400.

For starters Welcome and you are never to old and never to young but a ugly car is the ones you buy off the shelf in a candy store LOL there is never an ugly one expecially a MoPaR they were meant to be badasses and sleeper cars ... that car you have is one of the many that you can put a awsome color change on and some sweet tires / rims and make it bad to the bone look wise . I have always liked the body style on that car as it reminds me of the good o days on the strip.
Keep us informed on what your doing with it k and take alot of pics' as we all like pics
