Hello Everyone! We are a family from Southern Iowa that enjoys car cruising and a show now and then. We have a 1966 Plymouth Belvedere, the engine was switched out to a 1973 318, someone has also replaced the quarter panels and painted the trunk deck and lower half of the car. May 2010 I replaced the front floor pans, put in a new carpet kit and mounted a radio under the dash. Under the hood we gave the engine a rattle can overhaul, new valve covers, intake and carb. Just in time to make a leg of the Power Tour from Newton to Springfield. We bought our Belvedere in November 2008 and have driven just over 9,000 miles, it isn't a show queen but is a very solid driver and just a blast to cruise in.

Hope you all enjoy, the car isn't a show stopper but is a great driver and lots of fun. We haven't made a lot of changes to it since we bought it but alittle at a time and we'll get there...someday.
