Greetings from "upstate" NY

[JimCoronette]

Hi, my name is Jim and I'm hopelessly addicted to 66-70 B bodies.

I've had many Mopars since 1978.

My current project is a 1967 Coronet 500 convertible, 318/727/2.94 peg leg, TT1 copper inside and out, black top.

I'm taking care of all the mechanicals for now, then have to decide between ratrod or very nice driver look.

Welcome aboard from Ohio.

Welcome from NC, and my vote is nice driver. It looks in too good of shape to make it a rat rod, and with a little effort could be a nice looking driver, but that just my humble opinion.

welcome to FBBO

Welcome Jim.
Glad to have another New Yorker.
But I am a bit confused on your "upstate" reference?
Where we live that area would be referred to as down state.

I put the upstate in quotes, because the term is relative.

To someone from NYC, Yonkers is upstate.
To someone from Yonkers, Poughkeepsie is upstate.
To someone from Poughkeepsie, Saratoga is upstate.
To someone from Saratoga, Champlain is upstate.

Welcome aboard from North Jersey ( right over the Rockland border). My brother lives in Beacon. I pass through Cold Spring when I go visit him. There's a guy up your way that has a shitload of Mopar parts. He advertises on Craigslist sometimes.

That's pretty funny. Do you have a steep driveway? I stopped by there a couple of years ago. You/he showed me a rear clip of a 70 RR out in a back shed if I remember correctly !!!

That's not me, but I have met that guy at a cruise night. Yes, he had a whole bunch of 70 parts I was interested in when I had my 70's
