Hi. I've read this forum for a while. There is a lot of great info here. I finally got around to registering. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone.
Now a little about myself. I have been into Mopars since the late '70s. My cousin had a '68 road runner. He influenced me to join the Mopar camp. He made the point that if you had a Mopar you would have something that not many others would have, unlike Chevy guys. The Dukes of Hazzard made me fall in love with the '69 Charger. I would watch the show every week and drool at the beauty of the car.
I have a '70 road runner coupe. It is a matching numbers 440 6 bbl. 4 speed super track pack car. The body has been restored to conours quality on a rotisserie. I am in the process of reassembling the car.
I also have a '66 Charger. It is an original 383 4V auto car. It is a nice reliable driver. The body and interior needs work. Those are all the B bodies I have presently. I also have a '73 'Cuda 340 (actually this is my wife's car) and I have a '67 New Yorker with which I haven't decided what I want to do.

Sweet. Welcome

Is your wife's 'cuda the price you had to pay for all the others ? She's a lucky girl.
Love the Charger, Welcome.

GOMOPAR,
Actually I had all my car's before I got my wife. My wife always wanted a purple cuda with round taillights. I found the 'Cuda for her at the '08 Mopar Nats. She liked it, so we bought it. She loves driving it (it's a four speed). We go to a lot of shows and cruise nights with it.
She is an awesome wife. It is a lot easier to play with cars when your wife is into cars also.

rr ; Definitely. Long before I met my wife, her first husband had a Chevy 409 and an Olds 442 that she used to race in the powder puff races,at New England Dragway, back in the mid 60's. Nothing like hot cars and hotter women.

Wow! Nice collection you got there.

If you want to sell your new yorker you could post it on craigslist, that's where I bought my car from hah.

Welcome to FBBO rr440!

Welcome and those are some nice old mopars. A wife that understands is half the battle. I have one of those great ones also that enjoys the cars also.

Welcome! I am a newbie around here also, and in CT! The snow in the pics is (painfully) all too familiar. I hate the stuff. Bring on the global warming! Anyway, looks like a great assortment of cars that you have there. I'm always down for a beer with a fellow Mopar nut, so drop me a line sometime!

I wish my wife would be so understanding.....

Welcome aboard.

Primer King,
I am right down the road in Plantsville. A beer and some bench racing sounds good.
