Newbie from Ohio..

[RacerAL]

Hello.. my name is Alan and i live in central Ohio.i've been into MOPARS especially b-body Mopars as long as i can remember..In fact the car that i own/race now is the exact year and body style of the first b-body that i ever rode in,and when i official was "HOOKED" .My car is a 1967 Ply. Satellite,that first car was my uncle's 67 GTX..i know not quite the same,but, it's was close enough for me.I bought the car pretty much as a basket case..It took me about 3 years to get the car as far as it is now.I was lucky enough to get to race alittle this past summer and hope to hit it hard come spring time...which when you live in Ohio can seem like a life-time from Jan to May..lol...I look forward to meeting new Mopar brethren..and sharing our experiences.

Well for me it was the fender edges coupled with the pointed header panel and the slope angle of the rear quarter panel......
