Hi, name's Jeff. I just purchased a 1978 Dodge Magnum, had it shipped from Ohio to me here in Virginia. I owned a '78 Magnum from 1984 to 2004, feels good to have another one.

Thanks. Got a couple minor things to sort out so she'll pass inspection. Minor things like wipers, horn. I need to check the carb, just noticed a little gas odor in the oil. I figure first thing to check is carb and fuel pump...ok tbh my mechanic will be checking it LOL.

Previous owner had the body and paint done around 1994, since then it was only used to shows and cruise ins. She kept it garaged, on carpet, under 2 car covers.

Welcome from Upstate NY.
Looks like you have a cream puff.
Those look mean with really wide rear tires.
