Daily driving an A-body

DarTT,
Good responses all. My 2 cents: There are certain things that come with the territory of driving an old Mopar, the best way to learn is to go for it. Me, I drove my Dart and later a Challenger back and forth to Florida from Norfolk for 3 years, EVERY other weekend. That's right, down to Fl on Friday, back to Norfolk on Sunday. It was the only way to my family. I had a box in the trunk with my spare alt, belts, hoses, electronic box etc. Even if it died on the road I was ready, but neither car ever did... Once you learn them, it is like working on a go cart, too easy! When I am not deployed as I am now, I drive my '66 every single day. you can always sell it later if you decide it's not for you... good luck
