Mopar Muscle Association UK

Hello all

Well where do I start,, Am quite old now in my mid 50s, I have been a car mechanic since the late 70s.
Doing clutch jobs on Datsuns 120Ys for £20 I LOVE cars as they have been my life.
I now do a 9-5 job at a uni

Ive built some cars over the years including MK2 Escorts' Jag' Audi Quattro', the last car was a MK3 Cortina GXL that took me 8 years, sold earlier this year.

But I need a V8 in my life, I do love yanks but they aint practical. So I bought another MK3 cortina about two years ago to build a V8 MK3.

After much research...Listening To lots of V8s I have now come the decision that Dodge V8 engines are the best sounding V8 to me

So the only engine I could possibly use in my latest toy has to be a MOPAR .I will shush for now and post up more soon TiBBs

Hi welcome.
You are quite youg for this site so don't worry there is a good cross section in age and there is always someone on here to offer advice and help

Dave

Welcome!

I dream of being in my mid-50's!!!

Never to early or too old for a Mopar.

If you can run to the cost, a Big Block Mopar can't be beat, but they all have their own individualistic style and charm.

Plenty of help and advice on here.

All the best.

cheers guys
Here a a few of my earlier projects hope you like?

I've never followed the crowd or a particular make of car just like to do my own thing, 1978 4.2 Series two.

"good at what you do" Ohh I don't know,,

I just like to do my own thing, I don't always get it right.

This was a project I never finished an AIXAM 500, I started it but the cortina was what I wanted to do,so when a cortina come up I sold it . I was going to put a ZZR1100 kawasaki engine in it .
