What do you think of this

Stuart; From the point of view of someone who has recently taken a first step into classic mopar ownership, I understand the sensible advice the experienced MMA members have given. I took a different approach - didn't think about too much for too long, just made a positive decision and decided to deal with it whatever happened. I had no idea what I as looking at when buying my Roadrunner and fortunately for me things have worked out well so far. Naturally I'm a bit of a ditherer - struggle to make decisions one way or another on most things...but I decided that life is too short for that approach any more, so just rolled the dice. I just think that sometimes we can be too careful and it can be good to make a decision...even a bad one. The disclaimer is, clearly, sometimes things can ŵork out the way you don't want. That can smart but not as much - for me - as doing nothing.

Good luck with the search, your car is out there waiting for you....somewhere.

I'm an impatient person, so easier for me to say than do

The Mopar Nats is only a couple or so months away & I know it's a large proportion of the 'summer months' to lose, but it might be worthwhile putting off a rush decision till then.

You will get the opportunity to see the biggest collection of Mopars within the UK & covering all spectrums of car types & in various conditions. It will give you the chance to talk face to face with folks & chances of catching a ride are far greater.

In addition there is the possibility of some cars being for sale & to make an offer for those that aren't for sale.

Agree Marks post was bang on.
Everything has a price IMO. You may just have to have a car that isn't advertised for sale. Happens all the time and more often than not it can work.
One person gets the car of their dreams. The other a good price reflective of all the effort , time and money spent on said car !
