Vintage=73 and up???
Oh Geez Tim, you cut me to the quick!
I remember when I traded a car for a car that I purchased new in 1971 to buy a new 76!

Yep, I'm even more vintage. My first new car was a '68 Fury III hardtop, and in '73 I bought the yellow Adventurer Sport in that picture I posted. It's been restified twice...paint and trim in 1991, and a full frame off in 2006.

Here's my 78. My grandfather ordered it new. 360/4spd. Now a 408 stroker in it. I need to get some pics of my progress. Since these pictures were taken, the flatbed is gone, a bed from a donor truck all the way from California has been put on, the motor build complete. Truck's down to the frame. I'm 2 new fenders away from being ready to assemble it for paint.

I also purchased my first NEW car in 1968. It was a 68 Hemi RR. First car was in 1965, it was a 1957 Fairlane. I paid $25.00 for it. Remember those days?
Kids today have no idea.

I bought my first car in 1990 for $150, 79 Malibu. I guess you call that inflation. I enjoyed it for a year on the backroads before I turned 16. I sold it to whoever had the most money in their pocket that day, got a whopping $5 for it! Lol!! Oh well, it was worth it, I had a lot of fun in that car teaching myself how to drive on gravel! ;)

The Bruise, lol, love it! Rust is what ultimately killed my truck. Box sides that flopped in the breeze, big holes in the floor, nonexistent cab mounts...damn Canadian winters! :finga:

Here is my '72 D100 Adventurer SE and a friends '73 Charger SE.
First year for that body.
#'s matching 360/727 3.23 open, A/C, P/S, power discs, cruise control, cargo lamp, headliner, SE trim, molded door panels, brocade bench seat, carpet, am/fm radio, tachometer, sport mirrors (wrong ones in the pic, have the right ones), bumper guards, woodgrain SE tailgate with cursive script badge instead of stamped DODGE callout, factory air shocks and tow/ camper package rear springs that go with the air shocks.
Has every option available for a small block 2wd truck, except for under bed stowage and extra gas tank. Found it on accident.

Too many projects
Here are a bunch at Joe's place, lots of cool ones!
Recently picked this up, 360 4 speed
Factory 440 Ramcharger.
A pair of factory big block Power Wagons.
He picked this up for under $1000, and made it his daily driver. 360 auto.
Here's a nice unrestored Ramcharger a guy has in town.
Factory 440 Power Wagon that was at the steel salvage yard I worked at. Someone brought it by to sell it, but the frame was twisted really bad.

My truck isn't B5. The Charger behind it is, but my truck is a Spring Special blue, non metallic. Kind of a rare color. I have yet to see it on another mopar.
