New Guy - '71 GTX...

Post by bulletpruf » Thu Sep 21, 2006 10:46 pm

Just have one Mopar in the stable, but I'm kinda partial to it - '71 GTX, 440, 4bbl, 4 sp, Dana, Air Grabber, Formal Black/Black, Spoilers, etc. 2 fender tag car. 68,000 original miles. Wrong block, but otherwise complete and original. Super straight and rust free. Needs paint, seat covers, and TLC.

Picked it up outside Washington D.C. about 7 months ago. It's been in hibernation in a garage for about the past 20 years.

It's sitting in a mini-storage in Virginia right now and I'm in Texas and about to deploy to Iraq for a year. Will be itching to get it out of storage and back on the road when I get home!

Sorry, don't have an extra air grabber hood.

Don't have any real good pics of the car, either. Should have taken some before I put her in storage.
