Hey fellas,

Just a quick intro here. My name is Daryn. After years and years of wanting a muscle mopar, I have finally reached my goal. I recently purchased a 1969 Roadrunner, 383 4 speed, buckets with console and air grabber hood. Vit-c orange with magnum 500 wheels. Killer part is that it only has supposedly 18 thousand miles. After getting the car (ebay, shipped from Texas) I'm seeing lots of stuff that leads me to think it may be 118, but I digress. Anyways, just a quick intro to say Hi!! and I will be picking your brains on occasion. I have already gained a wealth of knowledge by reading some threads here.

Thank you all for the welcome. will post some pics when the snow clears. received 4 inches last night. Yes, I'm bummed. Have already put in a Mopar HP electronic ignition and rebuilt the carter AVS carb and fixed some electronic gremlins. took the RV mirror down, washed it up with some water and dawn dish soap and made it look like new. Glass (in the mirror) is in amazing shape. The dash was disassembled and reassembled in a haphazzard way. missing screws and panels are all misaligned. makes me sick that the car could be in such great shape, but be soo mistreated. Nothing to gripe about after reading what some of you are doing to bring these beautiful creations back to life. but, such inattention to detail on something so important burns me. I am a stickler for detail. Thats why i'm soo impressed with this whole site. everyone seems to be striving for either total performance or total originality. in either case, the strive for perfection goes on. I love it!!!
