Sorry Atrie , not me. However I did have the baddest 68 RR 383 4spd on the parking lot at Suitland H.S. Prince Georges County Md in the early 70's. Every guy wants his original sweetheart back, now doesnt he? Should have kept that one , but this one is better optioned.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the warm reception, I knew you guys were awsome. The other car in my shop is my 1960 Corvette Fuelie Car I have owned for 35yrs and restored about 30 years ago. I have owened other Mopars before, 1965 Barracuda 273 4spd , 1968 Roadrunner 383 4spd (high school sweetheart) ,1969 A12 Superbee. 1970 Dart Swinger 225 A/T. The Roadrunner project is coming along. All the suspension parts and differential are powdercoated for protection. Have the rebuilt heaterbox in now , and just finished restoring dashboard , including tach update , guages and all switches. Working on swingpetals and emerg brk and booster this week . I will post more pics.
