Hi all, yes I finally broke down and joined a forum. I just got a 1966 Coronet 440 Wagon with 526,000 miles on the odometer to go along with my 2008 Magnum SRT8 so you could say I've got a little passion for wagons. I've been wrenching since i was 14 and Dad owned a Texaco Station in the San Fernando Valley so no stranger to busted knuckles, spare parts after rebuilds and cost overruns. I've done 2 Dune Buggies - a new build and a restoration, a Cobra Roadster replica with a 429CJ and just sold my last project, a replica of a 1964 Cobra Daytona Coupe with a 351C and an ultra rare NASCAR tri-power with reworked 340 Mopar carbs. Now I'm looking to upgrade this poor '66 to an SRT8. Should be fun and I'm looking forward to tapping all the wisdom on this forum.

With enough time (and money), I'm sure you can get the wagons driving on a similar level.
Looking forward to seeing how things go.
