Hi I'm Andy and based in lancashire, had/have a few yank cars and trucks in the past but not a mopar, until late 2015 when I imported a 71 Dodge dart with a 360 engine, 727 trans and a ford 9" rear end. Needs a little work to complete but all the important parts in place. My other ride is a 58 GMC Apache pickup. I'll start a build thread as im going through everything as it appears the previous USA owner must have had lots of money,as most parts are new or overhauled but no ability to put them together properly!
Photos below are from when I bought it from the Texas dealer, who only dealt in imports ie German and Jap cars and had this as a trade in.
and in case you are wondering the gauges and air filters where gone in the first 24hrs of my ownership!

Now now Ducan, there's not much going on on the MMA face book page, It's only there to try and get people here, that's why no one can post their own topics on there.
