New to the Board
« on: December 06, 2012 - 01:11:18 PM »
Greetings All! Been around MOPARs for many years. At my age, into building things, welding, bead blastings and
paint work than ripping up asphalt and smokey burnouts. MOPAR poor with a 72 and 73 Challenger. 69 Dart GT,
73 Duster and my pride and joy (still being worked) a 42 Pickemup with a 241 Red Ram Hemi for a heart.

Need parts. Will hopefully get better at using the board. Looking forward to making new acquaintances and
enjoying making things go rumble, rumble, rumble!!!!

Wasn't sure if it was Kosher to post pic's in this section????

Truck, Dart and Duster in various stages of work. Posted pic of Momma's Black Baby and my Red toy.
Red is tore down to frame rails. Major rework in progress. New Torsion Bars, Inner fender wells, fenders,
bumpers. 4 Speed car moving up to a Geniune Chryslers TNT 440 that I bought for $500.00 and it runs!
Black is a 340 with a 4 barrel, but putting the pictured (dry fit parts pic) in her car.

Looking forward to a forum of workers and builders and not a forum of collectors and money gougers...

Lacey's Spring Alabama is home. Thanks for the welcome notes as well....     :{)

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.
