HELLO MOPAR PEOPLE

[dbeeeer]

My Mopar history started with a 1948 Dodge pickup. My Dad was Service Manager for Lidgerwood Auto in the 50's and 60,s So I'm all Mopar. I progressed to a 1966 Dodge Coronet 4 door, Slant six 225 cu in. Top end 110 mph, that's what the highway patrolman said. Next a new lime green 1970 Dart Swinger 318 slightly modified. I ran a 16.3 quarter mile. Next a 1969 GTS Dart, 383 4 speed, that was my hunting car, if I couldn't shoot the birds, I'd run them down. I found my Brothers 1968 Charger R/T he bought new in 1988 in a field near Labolt South Dakota in 1988, restored it then needed money, it ran a 13.4 stock. Sold it for $5500 in 1996. Raced a 1967 Dodge Dart with a 360 and 340 X heads, ran a13.1. then a 1970 Charger R/T V code 440 six pack. Next a 1970 Dodge Dart GT, I shoehorned a modified 440 into it with a modified 727 transmission. On the Dyno it showed 847 ft lbs torque and 645 HP at the rear.wheels. Naturally aspirated. It really got squirrelly when I tromped on it. I now am working on my 1968 Dodge Coronet R/T. Within the next year i'll be in my mid 70's so this.will be my last one. Never say never. Doug

Welcome! Sounds good that you’re doing another one.
1974 while on a trip we stayed in Fargo. While my wife was getting her hair done, our 5 year old and I went to an auto wrecker. We driving our 67 Charger that we still have. Picked up a set of taillights one side broken. When the guy found out where we were from, he gave us a discount. 8.00. Still have them and the car. Fond memories.

Excellent, 67 Charger has some unique lines, loved the front grille

Cool bunch of Mopars you have had over the years! We just painted my friends 69 383 4 speed Dart GTS last year. I have a 70 Charger R/T V code 440 Sixpack car myself so we got a couple of the cars you have on your list! Welcome to the site. Looking forward to seeing the 68 Coronet R/T!
