Well last year I sold my 69 barracuda. Went about 3 months without a mopar product (not including my Cherokee) But since then they just keep falling in my lap!!! First is a major project basket case 66 coronet big block car, needs a lot of work, but comes with almost everything (long term project). Next came a killer deal on a 84 dodge d-150, short-bed step-side prospector. straight clean truck, but bad 318. Had bad freeze plugs, and PO ran it out of water, put a 4" crack in the head, and seized a piston in the bore. building a magnum headed 360 for it. Then a super straight 71 dart /6 factory a/c fell into my lap. Was doing work on it for a customer, but decided he didn't want to do the project anymore and sold it, plus a butt-load of parts to me for $1000. Its going to keep the slant but get a turbo for a mild street cruiser. Now I'm trading some work and some other stuff for a 73 charger. super nice body and interior, setup for a 440. its too nice of car to pass up on, And I have a low mileage 440 sitting in my garage I can drop in. The problem is space, time and $$$, I usually have 0ne or two of the three, but hardly ever all three at once. On top of this Im in the process of starting my hot rod shop up, So that is also taking time and money away from the cars for now. I'm just trying to decide if I should sit on the cars, or sell some of them. I just don't know. I like all of these vehicles, and always wanted each of them. Sorry for my complaining, just needed to vent a little.
