I live about 25 miles southwest of Iowa City, I don't have my Cuda together yet, I have a 68 Coronet R/T convertible, my first car, 440 4 spd dana with 4.10 gears. If you get a chance there is a good cruise at the Sycamore Mall in Iowa City it is the last Friday of the month starts in April and ends in September. June , July and August are the big months 200-250 cars not a lot of Mopars.

There is a thread here that has a list of members from each state.  Not everyone is on there obviously, but you might meet someone that is close from the list.

I was trying to find it but have been unsuccessful.

I'm located in Postville (Northeast Iowa) and drive a real AAR (340+six), 70 Barracuda Convertible (383), 74 Barracuda (360+six), and 76 Charger Daytona (360).  Also, have 3 project cars.

My brother lives a couples of blocks away and has a 48,000 mile 74 Cuda (318), and a 70 Charger factory triple black 383 4 speed car with air (original Arizona car).

My neighbor has a 79,000 mile 74 318 Cuda that he bought new and his son has a 70 RR 383 car with 440+6 now.

There are quite a few cars in this corner of the state.

I live in Oskaloosa, southeast Iowa near Ottumwa. I drive a 1970 Challenger R/T with a 483 Hemi. Not an original Hemi car. It's what I wanted, so I put it together that way.

I'm in Urbana, just north of Cedar Rapids.  I'm putting together my dads 73 Challenger Rallye.(318/904)  He ordered it new from Thein Motors in Clarence Iowa. 

I grew up in New Hampton.  There are a few Mopar guys still around up there.  Some guys I went to highschool with have three 71 N96 cars.(2 Challengers and 1 Cuda...all 340 cars I think)

I know there are a lot of Mopar guys around Postville and Elgin.  A good friend of mine works at Torkelson Motors in Elgin.  He and his brothers have their dads 67 Belvedere.  It's a 318 3 on the tree.  I hope they get it back on the road.  Their dad bought it new at Torkelsons...he was a mechanic there.

There is a guy in Elgin that collects Mopars but I can't remember his name.  There is also someone around Postville that has a survivor 74 Cuda.(maybe CUDAMAN1970's brother?) It's light blue and was bought new at Torkelsons.  I saw it at the Nat's a few years ago.   

It would be nice to get together some time.  Especialy to help each other out with our projects.  I just bought a headliner and I'm a little worried about the install.  I also need to install and adjust the side glass.  That has me worried too.

If anyone is ever in the area, let me know. :thumbsup:
