This seat taken?
Greetings boys and ghouls. Came here to learn a lil bit more about the A bodies. I have personal interest in Johnparts' '74 Scamp and I'm looking forward to helping him w/ all the work on the car and learning as much as possible along the way.
I'll confess, I've always been a GM guy. I think the '70 Chevelle, 454/6-spd is about the sexiest muscle car ever created. I'm on my second W-body (had a '93 Cutlass Supreme, now have a '95 for my daily driver). But when GM killed Olds, I was lost. Lost, that is, until I laid eyes on the Magnum. Holy sexywagon batman! I lusted after that car for about 6 months until I graduated and could finally buy a new '05 midnight blue RT. 14 months later, I traded it for a new '06 SRT8 w/ 31 miles on the clock and never looked back. Since then it's gotten so much work it's not funny, and I'm not even 1/3 done with her. Here's where she currently stands:
In the process, I started paying more attention to Mopars. Of course I always thought the 'Cuda and Dart were sexy, but I've developed a new love for the classic Mopar metal. The A-body cars really are bad-***, and the more I see of them, the more I start to jones for one. Sadly, I have 3 more years to pay on the Magnum, so in the meantime, I'm helping John out w/ his ride as much as possible.
Looking forward to boatloads of knowledge and good times along the way!!
