I am pleased to be a new member here finally. I have popped in here for a long while, but just joined now. I thank you for all the knowledge and help I have read in the past here.
I was struck with the Mopar bug (B-Body in particular) for many many years. About 40 yrs now.
I bought my dream car at 19 years old -in 1986. A ‘68 Charger R/T 4 speed. It was in fair shape but really pretty complete. Day 2 modifications, of course. I knew nothing of numbers matching back then, but luckily….it is.
Fenton RT mags, Formula 1 super stock tires, blackjack alumacoat headers, torker intake with holley.
It has gone through a few iterations but I finally did body and paint back in ‘92. Looks presentable now, but by no means worthy of any contest.
I got into dragracing about ‘95 and it has a rollbar, 505” stroker (diff block) and Jerico 4 speed with moser Dana.
All orig drivetrain was put aside.
Been really having fun with it cruising streets and Trips to Carlisle every few years as well as Track outings.
I also have a ‘73 charger SE auto. Orig 318 car. I swapped a nicely built 505” stroker in there with a nasty Freddy Brown 727 trans, 3.23 rear.
Great street car and run it at strip also here and there. Much more street though. It runs 11.55 @ 115 dropped exhaust only.
11.70 @ 114 in witj exhaust.
I just love the feeling of slipping into either one for a drive. What an experience after driving modern cars with hardly any feel or feedback.
Thanks for listening and look forward to talking on here!
