A Plymouth Belvedere with a hemi? Whose idea was that?
I almost bought a '69 Road Runner with a 383...but I decided not to when I decided to solve my draft board worries by joining.

The rarest of them all: Tom Wuensch's 1967 Pontiac Tempest.
Although registered and insured as a six-cylinder vehicle, this baby could accelerate from 0 to 100 in about ten seconds.
Unfortunately, it didn't last long with Tom in the driver's seat.

One of the finest cars I had was a 1971 Charger SE with a 383 magnum. 335 HP, not much in the 1/4 mile, but the top end was awesome. I traded a 1964 Plymouth Sport Fury to the local Dodge dealer before departing for Vietnam. My dad went down about six months before I returned and got a list of the options and sent it to me. I sent back the ones I wanted and the dealer had it waiting for me on my return. $4111.00 delivered.

Hey all.
There is one car of note that does not appear on the list above.
It can be called the only 4 door Muscle Car. There were only 5 ever made and it is definitely deserving of a place on the list.
It is the 1963 Ford Galaxie 500. The one I speak of had a 427 cubic inch motor and a 4 speed transmission and dual 4 barrel carbs. It put out an amazing 425 horsepower.
Top end was over 120 mph.

Thanks for a trip down memory road.
If only still had any of them I once had. My first was a '65 Plymouth Belvedere II, 2dr Hdtp, '383' 4-speed. No Hemi, but it still got down the road just fine.
In fact, I never did have a Hemi, but also had a '71 '340' Duster, 2dr Hdtp, Auto (wife preference).
My last was a '70 RoadRunner, Red '383' 4-speed, Air Grabber Hood.
If only I knew then what we know now **sigh**

Spray-On Mud
READ:
2 Timothy 3:1-9Having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 2 Timothy 3:5
A British company has developed a product called "Spray-On Mud" so city dwellers can give their expensive 4x4 vehicles the appearance of having been off-road for a day of hunting or fishing without ever leaving town. The mud is even filtered to remove stones and debris that might scratch the paint. According to the company, sales are going well.
There is something within each of us that values how we look on the outside more than who we are on the inside. It causes some people to pad their résumés or embellish their memoirs. But it has no place in our lives as followers of Jesus.
Paul warned Timothy about people in the church who had a form of godliness but denied its power. "They will maintain a façade of religion, but their conduct will deny its validity. You must keep clear of people like this" (2 Tim. 3:5, Phillips). The inward reality of Christ is what counts, because it will produce the outward signs of faith.
Pauls authority to instruct the church about spiritual authenticity came through his suffering, not by "spraying on mud." "I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus," said the apostle (Gal. 6:17).
God calls us to authentic living today.
We fuss over form and we put on a face,
All the while showing God disrespect,
Not seeing how pride is eclipsing Gods grace
That the light of Christs life should reflect. Gustafson
If you are true to God, you wont be false to others.

Gotta love those late 60s-early 70s Chrysler products with the "fuselage" bodies but the vinyl tops are really ugly.

Mighty fine thread!!!
Cars that are too rare:
1971 Hemi Challenger R/T Convertible...amount built...zero.
Or so I've been told.
Anyway, here's mine.

BTW, about the ZL1 Corvette, and I'm working purely from memory here...3 were built, that's correct, but I do not think any more were available.

Good evening, all.
I'm watching the Oscars, so I won't be around a lot tongiht.
Say what you will about those loony liberal socialists congratulating themselves, but between the female nominees and the arm candy hanging around some of the guys, there are a lot of hot babes out there. And when Alan Arkin walked onstage, showing in the front row was showing a whoooooooole lotta leg.....
Ahem, what was I saying? Oh, yeah, see you later!

Greetings fellow FReeper Motorheads!
I've spoken with FReepers who have owned many fine machines over the years, but I have seldom seen reference to any current rides. So what do y'all drive?
I'm currently building a '37 Chev pickup. It's a complete ground-up build with me (and a very tolerant brother!) doing everything myself. Designed to be a cruizer, I've set it up with 4-wheel independent suspension - Jag rear and Fatman IFS. Power comes from a Camaro Z-28 TPI-equipped 350 thru a 700R4.
If you're ever seen one of these trucks you would know how tall they sit (stock), but I've lowered mine over 12 inches (and still have plenty of ground clearance).
I'm keeping the original body styling as intact as possible, but have joined the front end sheetmetal together and hinged it forward to make a tilt front.
Out back I've rebuilt the bed with strong, but lightweight steel frame to support the rams necessary to make it a tilt bed.
Inside I'm adding enough creature-comforts to make it user-friendly on long trips. I'm hoping to launch it (pun intended!) on its maiden voyage this fall.
That's my machine - what's yours?
