Hello Everybody,
My name is Denis and I recently moved to Lacey, WA from Quebec Canada. I'm in the RCAF and will be here for 3 years. While the only "MOPAR" I currently own is a 2010 Grand Caravan I was rencently given the green light from SWMBO to realize my dream of restoring an old muscle car. While I always knew that my target years would be from 1968-1974, I have spent the last few weeks researching what I might like. However, I keep coming back to B bodies, especially after meeting a local '70 Roadrunner owner who told me about this site.
The funny thing is, my first car was a '78 Camaro RS and I always thought my project car would be another Camaro but the more I learn about B bodies from those years the more excited I get about the project. So I think I've narrowed it down to the following choices:
68-74 Charger, with the '69 being the dream pick! (Might even consider 66-67)
71-72 Roadrunner, GTX, Satellite
1971 Super Bee (I know this is based on the '71 Charger but I'm considering it seperate)
Now in order to get this going I have to work on raising some funds first. To do THAT I am working on selling off my large comic book collection, so if you know someone who collects comics that might help!
With that being said this will be my firrst foray into project cars so while I work at raising the $$$ I have time to research and hopefully find the right car because the goal is to get something that I will keep for many years.
So far this site has been helping out a lot and I look forward to learning more from all of you.
