I also have a crack at the top of my drivers side door. It moves when weight it applied. Repairable? I believe every unrestored 71 B I've owned had a crack there Yeah, what's up with that? My 39k mile GTX has that crack on both doors. And that's after being painted twice. Factory/engineering defect...

AWESOME car and cool story...a 540ci HEMI doesn't sound too bad either

Very nice car - the gold and black contrast looks awesome

Enjoy the black until you can get the money up to have it repainted the green. :beer: Bingo! Even though I really like the looks of these cars in black, sassy grass is a hard color to argue with. And as much as I'd like to paint it tomorrow, I don't exactly have any more of that "money" stuff peopl...

Thanks for all the kind words guys, I really appreciate it :beer: RoadChicken – thanks man, it sounds like the body shop was extremely shady. Apparently they didn’t fix two minor issues the first time Greg picked the car up. When he brought it back for the shop to make things right, they were alread...

Hey there - I just joined the board and thought I’d go ahead and introduce myself. My name is Alex and I live in the artic tundra known as Minnesota. Through an insanely fortunate turn of events, I was able to score one of my dream cars this past fall: a ’71 Plymouth GTX. The car was owned by my cou...
