Just found this site. I've been mopar since I was 16. My first car was a 73 Dart Sport 318 4 speed - with the 318 torque 3.09 first gear and 3.55 rear it was a stop light maniac. Sold this for $50 in 1989 with almost 300k on it. Then a 66 dart convertible /6 auto for commuting and lost it on veterns day 1993 to pack of kamakazi deer on route 11. Then in 96 I got my current A body - 68 GTS Conv. 340 Auto. Its been apart for a couple of years. I had frame connectors put in by Rust Tec in RI. Now I'm looking at the 5.7 (i don't think you can beat the power to weight of this engine) with a plan on using my 4 speed w/ my wide ratio /6 gears. Does anyone know what junk yard 5.7's are going for in the north east? I also recently read that the GTS (power bulge) hood is being reproducted in fiberglass, any know who makes them? I've also got an 83 ram w/ a /6 and OD 4 speed which I put a pinto progressive 2bbl carb on, in case anyone is interested in that kind of thing.

For a gear head the A body Mopars have more potential than any car ever made.

"Whats that smell? I just stepped on a piece of chevy!"

Welcome Old Man. You can find out anything about Mopars here. Most all a body stuff has rusted away here in Northeast but for a few.
