Wow, sweet ride. It sounds great! You know, for brown, that color looks really nice! It's almost copper-ish....

Nice looking mopar dude! I have a 67 Fairlane... Not sure if it is amuscle car or not, it is a pillarless coupe, and has a semi fastback profile. I am currently restoring it, so I am not really sure what motor I plan to put in it. I am thinking a stroked 351 windsor motor, like a 400-408ci or something like that. Looking for about 400hp on the motor. Nothing crazy, as I plan to drive this beasty daily.

Thats a really cool car. I always hated the roadrunners. Bunch of guys out on L.I. NY had them at the car shows everyweek but they were orange with the plastic nose cone and OG jap wing. I dont care about its history, $200k value and all that crap, its still an ugly retarded car and why would you pick that to be your "sweet ride" lol. I didn't know they were cool looking under all that crap, I didn't know they came mellow like a cuda.

Looks great! aside from being mopar...

Hemi's do sound great tho. A friend of my has a blown Hemi in his '41 Willys gassers. Seriously powerful. Rolled off the line super easy and still ran 10.49. Its one of his many show cars and he didnt want to scrap rubber from the fenders, hince the rolling start...

Drool is spelled wrong... Did you draw that yourself? Quite artistic.

Really, even mopars can beat chevys, where do you live?

Unless you mean you can't beat a chevy for being played out, then you are correct!

Nice car mopar, i always liked those years. My bro had a 73 Sallilite, nowhere near that shape, but nice. My current 1:1 project is a 78 magnum with a 440/727 with a slapstick shifter, Here's a pic.

Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
