Hi there,
I live on a small island in the Channel Islands off the coast of France. Its only 9miles by 5miles. When we go out for a cruise, we basically go from one end to the other.
Needless to say we don't see many other Mopar, so we get quite a reaction.
I currently own a 72 cuda with a 440, It goes with me to watch the 24 hours of Le Mans,France for the last 2 years. And to the United Kingdom a month later for the Mopar Nats to go Drag racing best so far 13.4 after they dry the track, not bad for a 3.23 diff i think.
Recently i got my hands on a 68 charger from the insurance salvages for £2254, body is straight, no serious rust, just had an engine fire, see photo. Not a bad deal as it would have cost at least £1200 to ship one from the USA (not counting cost for me to find one in the same condition).
I share a workshop with my best mate who has a 65 Coronet we got in 1999 from Fortworth, and a 69 Barracuda that was a basket case. I've done all the welding for him, see befor and after pics, and check out
www.flatratracing.com to see strip down and rebuild for yourself.
I have learned loads over the last couple of years and have much more to learn from the likes of you guys on the forum, i hope I can make a contribution too.
cheers,
Keithcuda
