Hey there everyone,
Somewhat new to the forum. Joined about a year ago and have been soaking up as much info as possible about my first Mopar B body. Thought it was time to officially say hello and introduce myself. I was out of the car scene for about 30 years and have just recently been getting back into it, so its taking some time to get use to things again and accumulate the needed tools. I use to be a Chevy guy, but I guess you might say I found religion. Really enjoying the Mopar scene right now.
Anyway, here are few pics of my '64 Dodge 440; 318 Poly, 727 Pushbutton and 8.75 rear. The car was garaged when I found it, but had been sitting untouched for about 25 years. Engine was seized up when I bought it, but with a lot of Marvel Mystery oil and patients it finally broke lose a couple months ago. Once I did the basics like a tune up, new radiator, etc. it ran well (in the driveway) and all of the lights worked. I still have to go through all the suspension, brakes, front end, tranny, driveshaft, etc before I can drive her though. The underneath is rust free and no holes in the floor. Its a very clean car considering it originally came from Utah before ending up here in TN. The odometer and former owner says it has 67K miles on her.
Thanks for having me here and I'm sure I'll be hitting y'all up to pick your brains a bit.
