Your old Yank Iron

[Blue]

A year later I had a proper job and a Corsair that stood me in £350. A mate had a piece of Bananarama! '67 Barracuda Formula S, it was rusty, it smoked like a train but it had a 4 speed and an 8 3/4" sure grip. I couldn't swap the Corsair for it fast enough. It needed a ton of welding and filler to get it looking half decent. I rebuilt the 273 with headers and a hot cam, 4.30 gears, stripped it out, Centerline wheels and a fibreglass hood. Ran 13.7, which in 1980 was a pretty fast car. Kept it till '84 when I decided I needed a cleaner shell. Stripped it of all the stuff I wanted to keep and sold the rolling shell to a guy that left it in the street outside his house, until the council towed it away and crushed it.

Think its a Canadian model Dunc, i remember an identical car when i lived there waaaay back!

So, armed with a few hundred quid me and Bish headed off to Belgium to find me a '69 Dart to put all my running gear into. We couldn't find a Dart but did come across a really tidy 6 cylinder '73 Duster for £300 so we drove that home. I set about swapping in all the Barracuda's running gear, but somewhere along the line the 273 and 4 speed got sold to be replaced by a tunnel rammed 383 and 18 spline B body 4 speed. That car was a real hoot, ran 11.8 and was a real hand full on the street. I should have left it at that...

Tony's Duster was a lovely car. Liked that one myself. Very nearly a muscle car.

Thanks

But we all know that for a Mopar to be a Muscle Car it needs to be born an R/T with a Hemi or a 440+6 to be Muscle


Not my Rules of course.

Started off with the green Duster, bought from Dave Madders then sold it on to Tony.
Within a few months missed having a car so started looking and bought my 71 Dart from Dave Madders again the following summer.
These are the pictures Dave sent me of the car in California.

I left the car with Dave over the winter to get some work done and this is how it ended up. Still have it today

My first was a 67 notchback mustang with a 71 351 clevland shoehorned in, painted bumpers & a bit rough, if I found a pic & posted it on here, 'hard as nails' you would cry but 'rotten as a pear' I remember it as, still at school, in sixth form, no insurance & a fake tax disc, didnt matter as much back then...
Then a well rough 76 corvette which I tarted up & had for years then sold as Id bought my pals really nice 76 vet. B body mopars were still far to much money.
Years later bought a 69 318 satillite which was a really nice survivor & joined up here & was really sucked in...one b body after another

[andyrob]

then big red n loud off Jeff on here, which I did a lot of work to then some fool ruined it,similar time bought a right fancy 69 roadrunner 493 ci off George Chiles on here, probably the most fun car ive had both good on the track & on the street, even took it around mallory park

[andyrob]

Next bought this 68 383 roadrunner, mainly because of the colour combo, ended up going to sweeden

[andyrob]

now I have 2 cars which i have no plans to ever sell, a 68 coronet 572 which I bought off Jerry Smith on here & Cliveys 70 charger

[andyrob]

are trucks allowed ??
This was one of the most mad things ive ever bought, early 80's Kenworth off Jon Connley, had to sell it to buy the charger
