...to here, anyway.

Some of you know me, some of you don't, I'm known by this name over on Joey's sites, too.

Been into Mopars now for about 30 years when my sister bought a '72 Duster, drove it for a little while, and gave it my dad. Turned Pop from a Ford and AMC guy into a Mopar man. Kinda followed in his footsteps. Got some projects in the works, including my E-body, a '74 Barracuda.

There's a story behind it, too.

Pop bought the car for $300 about 20 years ago and started the project. It sat for a while after he retired and he decided to give it to me as I'm younger with more earning power to finish it.

Here's the car that started the love affair in the family for Mopars.

It's got a cool story behind it.

Welcome to the site and good luck with the 72. I had one with a 340 and 4spd and I have a lot of good memories of that car. Interesting to hear you live in the Glen. We used to go to the Vintage F1 races there in the fall and stayed at The Captains Quarters until they closed it, then over to Viking on Keuka.  :wave:
