70DartMike · Jan 6, 2022

Years back I started a thread called Let's See Your Mopars, but there are a lot of new people here now.. So let's start another.

So any Mopar, not just A body, let's see them.

I have a few.. Vancouver Island, BC here.

'70 Dart Custom, 340 auto
'67 Barracuda notch, 383 4 speed
'65 Valiant 100, 318 4 speed
'49 Fargo F1B, 225 slant 6 auto
'63 Dodge W300 Power Wagon, 440 4 speed
'57 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer, plan is 354 Hemi, pushbutton
'58 Plymouth Suburban 2 door wagon, plan is 440 pushbutton
And a '96 Jeep Cherokee, 4.0L 5 speed

Dang! That's a nice herd you have going. I thought I had a Mopar Problem, but clearly I'm nowhere in your league.

69 Dart GT, 340 auto but will be a 4-speed. Quite the project, it needs a LOT of work. The day it came home...
66 Valiant, 100% factory original survivor. Slant and three-on-the-tree. It will get a solid revamp of everything out of sight, keeping its current sleepy status.
82 D150, my problem child. Slant with 833 OD, I botched up the engine rebuild so it's coming back out to figure out WTF I did.
66 Valiant, my parts car.
65 Barracuda, a parts car for everyone else. Hmmm, I can't seem to find any pics, but it's a slant 4-speed car that is completely roached out.

A before and after. I've had it for over 30 years. I finished the first restoration in about 1995. It looked great, but I painted base / clear in Lacquer. After about 18 years, the lacquer started to look bad. So I blew it completely apart (again) and painted it with modern urethane base / clear. While I was at it I put in new carpet and a slew of other new parts. I did absolutely everything.

Brought this home in 1995

Restored it in a little over a year & been driving it ever since... This photo was taken in 2011 when the car had about 90K miles on it since restoration...

This one I brought home in 2001..

And I'm slowly returning it to it's semi original glory...

Upon returning home from the UK back in 1997, I convinced my wife that we needed this GTX...
(Taken about a year after purchase)

Ran a respectable 13.3 in the quarter. Enough to help three clubmates win the Annual Club Champs trophy that year.
Spent about 3 years tearing the car apart after having some fun, and eventually made it with minutes to spare (and no sleep) to it's first outing at the Concours d'elegance show here in Feb 2002. Finished up in 4th place in the Masters Class - mainly due to age points (one point off the winner without the age points). Scored the best marks for panel & paint...and it still won a paint award after another 20 years.

Made it into several local car magazines here.

Even a Cover car for the NZ HotRod magazine....first time they didn't show the entire car - Chevy guys

Took a picture in the same spot where I shot my '70 Road Runner nearly 20 years earlier...

and the Road Runner.....

The GTX and the Road Runner are gone now. But I still have my 1968 Dodge A100 pickup....and a lot of fun that is.
It went from this ....

to this, in 90 days......

....and now, nearly 12 years later, it sports an angry little 408 courtesy of BluePrint Engines.
Thanks @Johnny Mac :thumbsup:
