Another Newbie From Washington State
« on: May 26, 2007 - 09:00:14 AM »
    Hello fellow Mopar Nut's! I've been a Mopar guy for as long as I've known car's. My fist car was a 1966 Fury with a 383 BB. Paid $50 for it in 82. My second was a 1972 Charger S.E. with a 400. My third one was an E-body. 73 340 Barracuda. LOVED that car! AS my family grew, my "now ex-wife" convinced me to sell the car. At the time in 1996, I thought, well it's a "73", and "73's" will never be worth anything :crying:Sold it for $2,500. The guy didn't even want to test drive or hear it run. I tore the corner of the title during the transaction, didn't want to let go. Last year, I picked up a 73 340 Rallye option Challenger, #'s match,EVERY #! Love the car! Really like the web sight and look forward to chatting with all of you!  :cheers:Pat

When you're posting a reply, click on "Additional options" go to the attach box and click "Browse"  Then go into your computer and find the photo you want to attach.  Click on it and then hit "open" and the file should appear next to the browse tab.  Check the requirements under the attach area to make sure your file is the correct format and sized properly.  If you want to add more than one pic, click on where it says "more attachments" and additional boxes open up! 

If you are still having problems, send them to me and I'll post'em for ya!!  My e-mail is in my profile!!

   O.K. One more Top Bananna Pic. Don't mind the lift in the trunk. I did some experimenting with Y.O. trunk seal's. Come to find out, 70-72 weatherstripping work's best. Readjusted to perfection :thumbsup:

If I EVER had a 72-74 Challenger, that is EXACTLY what I would want it to look like.  Very nice car.   :grinyes:
