Mopar fanatic since before i could see over the dash, grew up in Satellites, Valiants and a barracuda. First car was a hand me down 69 sport satellite with no floorboards and very little quarter panel metal left (we lived in Jersey) but the weight savings probably helped with alot of the wins at englishtown raceway... I began my automotive career in dealerships as a tech, and always was quick to buy any trade ins that were too old for resale, this was how i found the $800 77' ramcharger SE i built and drove through my 20's. lifted high with mudders and a 4barrel swapped on the 360 and no top was everything a 20 year old needed! litterally drove it into a tree with a stuck throttle off road and still made it home no tow! next truck was an 85 ramcharger LE, less lift and tires (33's and a 4") after a move to Phoenix for 20 years and multiple muscle cars (including a 71 challenger R/T 440 i fully restored and sold at barrett jaclson in 2004) i have settled back in NM and purchased a 75 Power Wagon W100 im currently restoring, (driven daily as well since my wifes lexus was stolen 3 weeks after we moved here and she hasnt given my car back 10 months later) it has a 408 stroker, 4" lift and 33's, i have rewired engine pulled old ballast ign system, installed MSD and modern relays, focal/jl audio all LED, etc etc...going to spray it as soon as ther weather is co,nsistant enough to not have the gas heater in the garage on and it will be 100%...After every restoration i always say no more and ill keep it, but i guess everything is for sale especially when there are rusted out old bucket mopars calling!!
