These were my boys first motorcycle's. An 86 Suzuki SP250 and a 1979 Honda XR80. They now have upgraded to Yamaha TTR230 and a Kawasaki 110. We also have three 'cherry' 1986 Suzuki Quads, 185, 230, and 230 Quadsport. There is also a 79 Yamaha GT80 that is almost showroom condition we actually...

254-939-6700 Budget Wrench-A-Part 4497 US Hwy 190 West Belton, TX 76513 This is where my son and I have gone numerous times. Not badly priced but finding 60's, 70's cars is hard. Its really hit and miss, you just have to get lucky. We have found two different Darts there and gutted them...

Here are some more I found...

More crazy stuff, haha.

Found two more!

Doing a search of MOPAR stuff I started seeing all sorts of items that were some how related to MOPAR vehicles and themes. If you find any crazy, different, or off-the-wall pictures related to the world of MOPAR, post them here. We might be suprised and entertained at the same time by what we...

I know exactly what you are talking about! I thought the damn lug wrench was going to bend when rotating tires on my 2010. My 97 Ram has never been an issue though and I rotate those big meats every 6 months to make them last since they are so expensive. I was at a gas station a few months back...

Found this 69 Polara with a 318 for $300 sitting in the country in someone front yard when I was 15 years old, (1978). It had the rare "power light" in the grill that didn't work, AM radio with rear speaker, and bucket seats. Recovered the seats with slip on covers, added an underdash FM radio...

Man, what I would give to find a project like that! Looks to either have been a sounthern car or it sure led a sheltered life! Very solid! Wish that was mine!!!

I just checked this thread out from begining to end and love it. Just like you, money and time are our issues, but we also have no garage/out-building to work in, so our progress is no where as in depth as yours. You can check out our slow progress on our father/son project at...

I couldn't get back there today, busy putting up Christmas decorations all day, haha. They wont be open Sunday either and don't have a web-site. I'll try and check it out sometime this week if I get a chance.

Hope to get to a new yard to check out what they have this weekend. Dont know much about the yard or even if I am aloud to go inside and walk around, but will find out and hopefully get some pictures as well.

I bought a 4-door, 69 Coronet 440 with a 318 back in 1993 from a "buy-here-pay-here" lot for $1200 if my memory serves me right. I put a lot of elbow grease into that car and added some Cragar S/S rims and dual exhaust and it was a real head turner. Only sold it because I had to do a tour in...

mopardrt, I sent you a PM concerning your 74 Dart.

vrroom, Thanks for the info about page 79! I found it and you are right, it IS what I was looking for, I just missed it when thumbing through the pages. We have seats for the front and back that we pulled from another Dart that were recovered by Legendary, as well as recovered visors and...

What's the best site out there for decodeing 60-70's MOPARS, no matter the body type, (A, B, C, E, etc). Also would like to know what year the VIN number format changed / became longer? Do MOPARS made in other countries have different VIN formats? What about fender plate decodeing?

Well I went back to the car today and looked it over again. My digital camera died when I attempted the first picture, which drew a string of colorful words from me! A pictures worth a thousand words, so having no batteries really pissed me off. However this small photo was taken with my sons...

The catalog looks great and reminded me of the Paddocks old format. Only thing I found disappointing was that the headliner I need to replace in our 74 Dart was only offered in a soft style. I want the original board style or even plastic. But other than that, they looked pretty darn good.

We found this 74 Dart Swinger on Craigslist for $1500 by the original owner here in Central Texas about two and a half years ago. I offered $1000 and they took it. I'm originally from Ohio and know that rust free cars are next to impossible to find up there. These are before and after shots of...

I just recieved my Classic Industries, "MOPAR" catalog this week after seeing their ad in Hot Rod magazine. Did they take over after the Paddock closed it's doors? I did like the Classic catalog and the prices didn't seem to outrageous either.

I plan to check the car out this Thanksgiving weekend again. I'll get the VIN number and see what we exactly have. Being that it is a "buy-here, pay-here" beside a military installation, the owner is probably wanting an arm and a leg and is hopeing some young Private walks in and buys it, (and...

70 Coronet (Mexican made) on local lot, Valiant on Fort Hood, and "Dukes" cop car in neighboring WalMart parking lot.

I'm in no hurry to check out the VIN, more of a curiousity issue anyways. Maybe I get a few shots of the VIN and the underside to post so everyone can tell more about this car, negative and/or positive. haha

She does appear quite cobbeled together. That along with the wife waiting patiently in the truck was a reason I hurried with the pictures and didn't bother with the VIN#. I never even noticed the speedo when I popped my head inside real quick. My time and effort is better spent on our father/son...

Saw this today in a town next to us. It has a lot of "putty" in her but sure looks like fun to play with. Engine bay has some orange in it and I wonder if that was the cars original color?!?! I may contact them this week about what they are asking for the car. The hood emblem sure had me puzzled...

My son and I found our "father/son" 74 Dart Swinger here in Kempner, Tx. You can check out all our work thus far at; http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=44709. The thread is now 14 pages long. We also found the car on Craigslist for $1500. I offered the original owner $1000 and...

Thanks 63dartman, we haven't had much time (he plays travel team baseball), money, or space to do a whole lot this last year, but at least he has a MOPAR for the future to work on! He wants to take Automotive Tech at Central Texas College and Texas A&M after H.S. He is best in his class right...

He needs to have Jimmie Spencer knock out his lights like his brother had done to him! Better yet, let Harvick stomp on him! Busch is a chicken crap coward that uses his car because he's not man enough to go face-to-face with a competitor like a real man! Could have killed a pit crew man earlier...

My son and I picked this up this 74 Swinger with a 318/904, as a "father / son project" about 3 years ago for $1000. Original owner wanted $1500 but took less because cash was on me. That Duster looks like a great starter car. I'd love to have it!

Well I got the Dart all polished out, body, chrome, and rims. Then cleaned all the windows, very time consuming, haha. But it pays off in the long run. Cover goes back on Monday since we are expecting 2.5+ inches of rain between Monday and Tuesday night. People were driving by the house today...
