Were not going to talk about what has happened to my 401k recently, very upsetting.  I live in Rock Hill SC, Its just a few minutes south of Charlotte NC.  I bought the car near charleston SC.  I havnt chack the title history yet but im pretty sure its been in the south for most of its life.  The are no rust issues under the car, just a poorly done T/A exhaust job.  I was told the car had a repaint about 10 years ago.  It has some bubbles under the vynal top, and some bubbles just to the left of the driverside taillight.  I really havnt found anything to be concearned with.  It even gets about 18 mpg.

 :wave:  Welcome, sloop!

Very cool car!  I love the T/A look and those rims are classic!  Enjoy it as much as you can!  It's wicked cool!  :smokin:

Great find, Sloop, and welcome to the club!!  I had a good friend that went to school in Rock Hill - been through there a few times myself.

Sounds like you got a great deal - now's the time to buy a car!!!

Good luck with the project!

  Welcome, great looking car, if you read a few of the threads on this board you will see that we like ALL MOPARS, not just E bodies. Keep us posted with any modifications you plan and you need advise on, somebody will definetly know the answer or be able to advise.   :2thumbs:
