new member from Michigan/Indiana
« on: January 02, 2017 - 01:05:38 AM »
Hello all,

New to the forum. My dad purchased a 74 Challenger from the original owner in 89. Originally a California car, but has since been in Michigan. 178k miles, 1 rebuild in so far. mostly original 318 auto. b5 blue with the white vinyl hard top. lots of pictures but they're mostly all 35mm, not really many in the digital format. i've been tossing around the idea of picking up a 2015 scat pack myself but recently decided to stick with upgrading the 74. We have a few questions that i will post about in other posts after i look around a bit to see if the topics have already been covered first. i look forward to reading everyone's stories in the near future.

Joe

Welcome to the forum. Where are you in MI? I'm from Ontario but am in MI a few times a year.

I'm originally from the thumb area in Michigan. the folks still live there so i travel from Fort Wayne to north of flint once every month or so to visit with family/friends. My family hit up the Kitchner Ontario Mopar fest years ago, that was pretty cool. saw a Valiant that sounded like a radical v-8, turned out to be a slant six. i've never forgotten that car. it was crazy lol.

thank you for the warm welcome!

found some pictures on my computer from 2005. RT style hood on it currently but didn't realize while prepping it for paint it was warped....threw it on due to the work put into it but it's not right. will eventually pick up a shaker hood for it
