    Hey from Penticton BC

    Welcome from 2 hours north of you. That's a clean car, I remember it being advertised.

    My newest favorite Mopar!

    Good looking car. For the second gens my favorite is the 70 as well. I like the high back buckets, door scoops, wraparound front bumper and availability of 15X7 wheels.

    Pics from Back in the Day

    My car, around 1986 I believe, photo taken by a friend. Lots of cool $#^% for the time. Gold box, lots of chrome, highbeams that could roast a moose before you hit him when doing 130MPH at night, H rated radial T/As. I still dig the FM3 painted shaker we did at the time. Note the SIAC and CCOA...

    How in the H did I break this?

    The chrome will be mildly tarnished by spot welding. If it bothers you, have them rechromed or powdercoated black wrinkle. New repros are going to have the same tiny little tag welds as these ones did anyway.

    Look for advice on a low mileage 70 Satellite that I am considering purchasing.

    If this was a Road Runner or a GTX, then maybe $10k depending on what it came with it. But this is a 318 Satellite that needs everything. Wait for a better one. Doing all your own work including body, paint, engine, trans, rear diff and interior you will lose money, lots of money. For $10k if it...

    How in the H did I break this?

    Grind the chrome mating surface and have it spot welded. It's been some years so I would guess it finally vibrated loose.

    1969 Road Runner preservation

    I love this car every time I see a photo of it. This car represents why I loved 69 Road Runners since 1969. The way it sits on those road wheels, colour, options etc. 1969 Road Runners are one of those cars that always look good whether on fat tires, in primer with a few dents etc. but stock and...

    1969 R/T Charger Hanging from the Rafters

    Holy heck! Good for you.

    I'm asking for your input on this. American car/truck buyers vs. foreign vehicle buyers.

    I've always driven Chrysler corp cars. I owned 1 Ferd and I owned 1 GM, both big disappointments. Without getting political my parents lived WWII and foreign cars were not something one would consider. I'm not going to change my opinion on that either. Lately I'm not sure what I would buy. If...

    The Old MOPAR Curse....

    I do carry a spare one but in over 50 years driving these cars I've only had one fail. In a pinch you can jump the terminals with a wire to get home.

    Mopar better than Chevy

    Also, remember that LRE licked 454 Chevy and 460 Ford pickups to the curb as well.

    Mopar better than Chevy

    Sort of but that lil 360 in a pickup truck outran what GM and Ford put in their cars in the same manufacturing years. I mean it pushed a barn door pickup truck faster than a same year Corvette for gosh sakes.

    What a great car this is. You've done so well on it. Lots of work and doing the right things. Congrats!

    Rich kid cars.

    FK5 Six bbl, 70 GTX is the one that stands out for me. Father owned a sawmill. Oh yeah and another one; 66 Coronet 500, Hemi 4 speed GG1. His father either owned a sawmill or a logging company. Back in those days lots of guys worked hard in the bush and could come to town in the spring and pay...

    Found Me a 1969 RR

    Nice to deal with yet another dishonest POS on Ebay.
  16. Runcharger

    Mopar better than Chevy

    The deal is other than the Hemi and the Crossrammers Chrysler built street engines. In that application the Chrysler engines were superior no question about it. Dry intakes, external oil pumps, no rocker studs to pull out, better geometry. They weren't building race engines, when they did they...

    That Steve Lisk 71 Challenger R/T was a darn nice car to start with!

    Loan contract for my A12 1969

    That was an expensive car payment back then. Anything over $100 per month over 3 years was considered outrageous.

    1969 R/T Charger Hanging from the Rafters

    Way better than you would have thought. Rare find these days.

    Decline of Car Culture in America (video)

    It seems the big guys have been trying to take our hobby since around 1970. To be honest I think part of it is when some gloomy people with no life see someone else enjoying themselves and having fun they become jealous and come of with ideas to take what makes you happy away. That is part of it...
