How did you become a Mopar A-body Enthusiast?
Well, started out Pontiac at young age. Worked in custom shop in the 80's.
Got this roached 69 GTO and put heart and soul and $ into it. Fiberglass quarters, 12 bolt 4.11
POSI, 400 V8 w/ tripower, and 400 turbo trans. I was in high heaven after completion.
Enjoyed my hard work at age 18 and boy was I cool. Long story short..... I decided I need
to be faster than the Dart swinger 340 down the block. That would pass me after about 80mph.
This 4200 lb lead sled wasnt doin the trick.
Found 67 cuda, 273 original 727. Put 383 bored .60 over, solid motormounts, Fenderwell headers, slight ported open chamber heads and 727 rmvb W/ 3500 stall, (Over period of 10 Years)
huge Crane roller cam, tunnel ram w/ twin 560 cfm carbs, and 150 shot of nitrous, Suregrip 4.10.
And wallahhhhhh! Now I felt like I accomplished something! No one came close but a supercharged corvette now and then. Still have car today.
Since I have bought, rebuilt, restored and resell Strictly A bodys ONLY...... I Insure 7 vehicles all Mopar.......Tell us your story to present.
