Bought my Barracuda in 1982 for $1000 with a 340/727 running and driving,although not very well.Drove it for six months as a second vehicle as I started to collect parts for a resto but the engine blew so it sat for a long time.Finally in `95 it was back on the road 90% restored and now after 16 years of driving/racing and abusing it needs another teardown and resto.  :eek4:

I admit it - I have Mopar ADD.  I've owned at least 25 Challengers (including 6 ragtops), 10 B'Cudas, 8-10 Dusters, a couple of Chargers, a few Darts, 3 or 4 Ram Chargers, a bunch of Dodge Pickups.  Longest I ever had one is about 5 years, the 71 Ragtop in my avatar plus the 36 Humpback Panel Delivery I bought and built as a "tribute" to my father when he passed away.  It was the type of street rod he always dreamed of building.  Out of the 60+ Mopars I've owned, I only regret selling those two plus the white AAR I had...

AND TOO MANY OTHER MOPARS THROUGH MY HANDS TO COUNT

I owned my convertible for 32 years.  I have had my 6 pack Challenger for 30 years.  I am the second owner of both cars.  I have had my 6 pack Cuda for 6 years.  I bought the N-Code car as a shell 22 years ago and my 383 R/T was purchased 27 years ago.  Odd thing is that 27 years ago Gary looked at the same car and considered buying it.  Sad thing is that I have never driven it.  Someday it will be restored.  It was rough 27 years ago and probably would not exist if I had not just stored it away.
