    Got my Papa's old '65 Fargo back in the family

    Not an A body but thought you guys would appreciate this... Long story but I'll try to keep it short... when I was a kid, my Papa (grandpa) owned a '65 Fargo. Everyone in the family has a close memory of him and that truck, and he sadly sold it. It was the one truck we would all say, "Too bad...

    1957 Dodge Royal Lancer - road trip!

    My buddy Brad and I drove his car out to Vernon on Thursday to look at this '57 Dodge Royal Lancer I'd had my eye on for a while. The pictures don't do it justice, it's gorgeous! Not only the body, but all the interior, engine, trans, underneath, everything. I made an offer and the guy accepted...

    '57 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer

    Not an A body but I thought I'd share a cool project I picked up. It's a '57 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer (top of the line for Dodge in '57) with a 313 Poly. It's a Canadian car, so it has the Plymouth 313 rather than a 325 Poly. However, I have a '56 Chrysler 354 Hemi that I'm planning on...

    Cool new project, not an A body

    Brought home a new project. I wasn't looking for another, however this one kind of fell in my lap. I left my phone number last year after stumbling on it, well, they called me last week asking if I'd like to buy it. A one owner, all original, unrestored survivor with bill of sale from new, sold...

    My first car

    Just thought I'd post a picture of my '70 Dart Custom, I've owned this car since I was 16. Anyone else want to share their first car that they still own?

    Fixed the front end on my '70 Dart

    A couple months back I whacked a deer with the front of my '70 Dart Custom. Pretty heartbreaking as the grill was a beautiful original unrestored piece. It had a huge hole in it smashed out, the bumper was twisted, the hood had small damage, and the valence was bent. Claimed it through ICBC...

    Got the Cuda out today

    Beautiful day for a cruise in my '67 Barracuda . This is a home built ride, 383 4 speed. What an absolute blast to drive this thing . For those of you who remember me, I did a thread on this car called Ugly Bastard. It's not perfect, but it's fun as hell .

    Was a great night for a cruise

    We've been having summer temperatures on Vancouver Island, BC, so I took the Dart out last night for a cruise. I've owned this car almost 20 years, it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

    Picked up one of my dream cars..

    Sorry, not an A body, but still a Mopar. I've been selling stuff like crazy around here just to get this home. A friend owned it, I asked if it was for sale - it wasn't - but he came up with a price and I gave it to him. '62 Chrysler Windsor 361, pushbutton, front disc conversion. Everything...

    Bye bye Scamp... Hello Wagon!

    I did a straight trade tonight, my daily driver '74 Scamp for this '68 Polara wagon. It'll be a good grocery getter!

    Decode this fender tag - 1975 Valiant Brougham

    Guys, I picked up a '75 Valiant with a loaded fender tag, could someone decode it for me? '75s are tricky it seems.

    Check out this badass '56 Dodge

    I went to Joe's today to check out a '57 Dodge truck he's dropped a 440 into and put 4 wheel discs on using only junkyard parts. While there he showed me a '56 Dodge he picked up for next to nothing. "Check out what's under the hood." Hey, there's a 440 under there. It's got enough parts in the...

    Cool find yesterday! '57 New Yorker

    Went to look at a side job yesterday, on the way home noticed some familiar tail lights under a tarp. Circled around to see it again. Yep, '57 New Yorker. Knocked on the door, no answer. Was about to leave when the door cracked open and an older gentleman opened the door, "Can I help you?" "Oh...

    Well, I've joined the 'Old truck from the 40s' Club

    My neighbor down the road is an older gentleman who picks up these cool old trucks out of the prairies and brings them back here. About a year ago I saw him I unloading a '49 Fargo pickup, so I stopped in to introduce myself. We talked for a while and he asked me to help him work on the truck...

    Picked up another one - 68 Valiant

    I heard about a '67 Barracuda sitting in the bush so I went and checked it out. There was also a '65 Savoy 2 dr post ('65 Fury for you guys south of us), a '65 New Yorker sedan, and a 1st gen Plymouth Horizon. Turns out the guy wanted a little too much for them all, but we worked out a deal on...

    Check out this badass '57 Dodge Mayfair my friend bought

    A buddy of mine has a couple cool rides including a beautiful '50s International pickup, a '67 D200 383 4 speed, and a '66 Fairlane GT ragtop. He just picked up a '57 Dodge Mayfair for an incredible price. It's completely rust free, just needs some interior work. Unfortunately that's a Chev...

    Got a good score of parts for my '67 Cuda!

    A couple days ago I took the truck over to the mainland and met up with Rocky (EhValiantGuy), the guy who bought my Valiant. I got to see his collection of early As, his 340 Duster, his 340 Swinger's, and his collection of A100's. Then we met his friend Curtis and followed him over to his place...
