Newbie in VA

[1967_Joe]

Hey guys. Well...it took me several years to finally convince the Wife. I am now the proud owner of a 1967 Plymouth Belvedere ii. She needs some work but it's a project many years in the making. You should have seen her face when I rolled that car off the trailer. It has a 383 with open headers, no exhaust. I rumbled and back fired down the driveway and parked it in the garage. Needless to say, my Wife nicknamed it Bertha.

Attached is a pic. In the trunk is all the original trim, has a gtx hood, and gtx emblems (also in the trunk).

Glad to be part of the forum.
