My 1st.

It took me 18yrs. to decide on this machine. It has the most I wanted in a car, low stance, BB (440, nothing else would do), skirts, interesting looks (to me anyway) and all from the factory no mod's needed. Little body work some paint and some tint on the windows is all that is needed. Almost every one around here wants these for Derby cars, so I decided to save one.

Just because this is my first Mopar doesn't mean I know nothing about them. A few guys around here have toys (little cars like the darts, dusters, etc. etc.) and while their sweating their buts off, listening and feeling every vibration and sound coming from the drive train while doing the cruise thing. I won't be when I want to hear the that BB under the hood bark I'll roll down the window and listen to it echo off of their toy as I move passed them in short order.

Upgrades will be Headers, cam, intake, sure grip (I really do think that the one wheel peel is for imports.), possibly deeper gears if I can find a four speed auto that will take the beating.

Welcome! Gotta love those big land yacht C-Bodies. I'm restoring my 76 NY right now and it's been the best thing I've done with money in years! Good luck to you and enjoy it: Cause they don't make them like that anymore.

Welcome!

Just because people listen to every sound and feel for every vibration, don't pass on their info, some have some really good knowledge.

Oooohhhh I am all ears, when it comes to info. A hard lesson learned yrs. ago take in all info and use what I need, and pass it on to someone who will also need it.
