Hello MOPAR EBody fanatics!

I am new to this site and very excited to join.

My very first car at 19 years old was a 1970 Challenger convertible 318/727 that I paid twelve hundred dollars for in 1979! I drove that sweet ride for 3+ years while getting my Communications Degree at Cal State Chico. It was green/green white top; really sweet memories. Being an EBody Convertible fanatic I have owned 3 Challenger 'verts including a real 383/4 speed R/T that I should never have sold. Currently I own a 1970 Barracuda convertible 318/727 converted to a 440/5 speed, a 1971 Barracuda convertible 318/727 stock, a 1971 Chrysler Conqueror 16' Jet Boat!, a 1974 Plymouth TrailDuster 4X4 318/727 early cut door channel convertible, and my recent find: a Mojave desert-raised 1968 Dodge Charger-the only non-topless MOPAR I will ever own!

See you all at Spring Fling 2011 / Van Nuys CA!   I plan on towing/showing the Conqueror with my 68 Charger!!!

Quite a wack of Verts in your journey - how did you get so lucky ?
I have a BS27H0B 4 speed Top Banana that needs a resto - wacked hard in the front.
Got all the important #'s goodies (#'s motor/tranny etc.)- just no front clip & everything attached to it.
Would go much smoother if I could find a 'donor'. Don't think I'll be quite as lucky.
All the best.

Awesome collection! When picking favorites, I almost always go with the 71 cudas if they are among the choices. However, I'm rather partial to the black 70 convertible. I hope some day to have one like that too.

That trailduster is Awesome !!  Love what you did with the grill.  Really makes it stand out. 

Did that one originally come with the 318? 

Sweet rides !
