Hi. David from East Tennessee here.  I have had several classic cars in the past, mostly just nice drivers. Do not have the skills to restore, just like to look and drive.  :) Currently have two '70 Challengers. An original slant 6 coupe with about 87k miles and a 383 convert. Both are auto and of course kept inside where every classic car needs to be.
 Had a very nice original '76 Warlock until last summer. It had 58K and was a real survivor, would love to have been able to keep it, but with this terrible economy and these crazy gas prices decided to sell it.  If prices were not so low now would consider sell the covert. Do not drive much anymore and it really needs to be enjoyed more.
 Happy motoring and God bless.

Welcome to the site!  Couple of very nice cars you have there.  Except for the wheels, the coupe couldn't get much more plain Jane than it is - a true Secretary Special.  A rare car, for sure - I like it.   :thumbsup:  Would love to see more pics of both.

Yes, the coupe was originally from a little old lady.  haha  It is a slant six which is actually about as rare as the convertible. It is my VP wannabe.  Thought about having it converted to serious muscle, but it was so original, I decided to keep it that way.

No, I have never gone to any of those.  Have always meant to, but they get so very crowded.  Hotels sell out far in advance from what I heard.  Probably can do a web search and find some helpful info.  They are really nice shows from what I hear.  By the way, great looking Cuda!

Welcome!  :wave:

Nice cars!  You must have some serious will power not converting the slant 6 to a V8 and popping on a rally hood!  It must be a very cool cruiser and great on gas!

Great looking cars!  :2thumbs:
