1966 Plymouth Belevedere

About this Mopar:

This is my Plymouth. My dad bought this from my uncle in 1993 for $125. I helped him restore it as a kid. I cherished this car and most of my positive childhood memories are in this car. When I was in High School my dad offered to sell me this car and I jumped at the chance. I bought it and treated her well. I became quite the mechanics apprentice. I wanted to learn everything I could about how to care for this treasure and keep her on the road. She went off to college with me. Man did I score some dates driving my car. Then I joined the Army, and I went to Iraq. My brothers were driving age and I lent her to them so they would have a ride to school and work. Boy was that a mistake if I ever made one. They treated my car like the General Lee and jumped her and such. When I got back from Iraq she was parked because they blew the engine stripped the trans and broke an axel. So I am re restoring her, working on getting her back in operating condition. She runs but we (my husband and I) are still working on a charging issue. Now my kids are interested in helping me and learning how to fix cars, something I am passing on to them.

thanks for posting the picture shawneen. the car still appears to be in really good condition. so while you brother may not have taken the best car of her mechanically the only damage i see is the from bumper which could be easily straightened and re-chromed. what engine/trans/ rear and interior does the car have/had?

good luck with getting in back on the road and restored
