Good idea, Andrew.  

I'm Johnny and I'm in southeast Texas.

31 yrs old, even though I've been accused of acting 12.

I've dreamed of owning a Charger since I was a kid, and now I've finally have realized that dream.

Was on D-C.com before its demise and also post over on the 1970 Charger Registry (click the banner in my sig. line), MoParts and C-C.com.

I am Paul (Paul G) from northwest Indiana. 46 with all my hair and still mostly black . I have Mopar in my blood. 73 Charger Rallye and 01 ram 4x4 daily driver. My dad drove a 69 Satellite when I was in high school. I spent many hours, nights, weeks in that car when I first started driving. For some reason Mopars just grew on me.

Hi, my name is Jim, 44 and no hair. I live in Indy. My father co-owned a Chrysler dealership in Fortville IN in the early 60's ,through most of the 70's and 80's he was a salesman at a Dodge dealership in Noblesville, IN. I got my pick of a lot of trade-ins over the years!! My current car is a 68 Charger I've had since 87, should finally be ready for paint in the next couple of months. Just picked up a 72 Rallye yesterday, U code and N96 although the original hood is gone. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet.

Floating on an island in sunny Northern California.   No, not Alcatraz - another island!!

For 10 years, owned a T3 (Light Metallic Bronze) 1969 Charger that's 49% original & 49% restored and therefore 98% finished.    Saddle tan interior, 84,000 miles, 318/904 with a Dukes horn in the trunk ('cause all us Super Cool Dudes have one).

Thanks Professor Troy!

Peace,

[Drache]

Kyle, 22, from BC, Canada!

I've owned a '72, a '73, and a '66 although I sold them to someone who had more money that I do and could have restored them the proper ways instead rat rodding them like I might have lol.

My father owned a '70 Charger R/T 440+6 that was plum crazy purple before he painted it B5 blue! My very first car ride was in that car and sadly he sold it and it's pretty much been trashed while racing up in Vernon BC!

[Plumcrazy]

I'm Paul
I'm not sure I want to brag about it but I've owned my 1970 longer than a lot of members here have been alive.
32 years next month.

[BB1]

I da know, I'm part of the old fart community.

[PlumBad70]

Hi everyone, I'm Steve...I'm 20 years old, I have a 70 charger I'm restoring, its heading to the body shop end of this week, I can't wait, its finally going to look like a real car again

[MGBRingo]

I turned 57 yesterday.  Bought my 1970 RT SE in 1981.  Only Mopar I have ever owned.  I am a big 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen Charger fan but drive all brands of vehicles.  No loyalty here.  Just drive what I like no matter what the name on it is.

Hi, I am Michael, I am 36 years old and I live just outside of Toronto, ON and I like fast cars, fast women and long walks on the beach!

[Ghoste]

Shawn, 43, 67 Charger.  Regular on the old site.

[Old Moparz]

Bob, 42, I have lots of hair, but mostly gray. Could sell it to some of you bald folks, or trade for a Hemi.

Into Mopars since I had a '69 Hot Wheels Charger in the late 60's. (Still have it too.) It was the same as a real one parked around the corner from where I lived in NYC, which I had thought was a race car with the big gas cap on it.

My wife tolerates me & the car hobby, & my 6 year old daughter seems to like them too. Although she likes the '68 Charger the least of the 5 I have because it's not put together & just a shell.

My first Mopar was a '69 Charger SE 383-4V 25 years ago, & currently have a '68 Charger, a '68 Coronet 500 Convertible, (For now) a '69 Satellite Convertible, a '71 Scamp & a '71 Barracuda. The Scamp is the only one close to being finished, & all 5 are numbers matching. All the numbers in the price matched the number of dollars in my wallet.

Here I am in the last known photo of me dancing. I was told I was a cute kid, but don't know what happened over the years.


Oh yeah, no such thing as a re-body. That's just a term that some VIN swapper invented to soften up the sound of a criminal act.

[SLIKK 70]

Hi there! My name is Tom and I live in California. I have  2 sons and 2 step- daughters. One beautiful wife, three dogs too many and only one 1970 Dodge Charger 500 FK5. Glad to be here and thanks to those who made it possible. Whenever your ready for donations let me know!! 

[tomonty]

Mike from Wisconsin, 27, 70 Charger 500 that is now a R/T clone with a six pack in it. Might be aquiring a 69 verrrry shortly..don't know why I love Mopars so much since my dad is a Chebby guy. 

[Charger72SE]

hey Dudes - Paul from Wisconsin.  My first car was a 72 Charger SE (see 1st pic).  I bought it with my Dad in 1977 - 318 automatic, but fast enough to get 5 speeding tickets in 18 months!  Three years ago (25 years later) I got the bug to get another Charger and found another 72 SE.  This one has a 440 HP which is a LOT more fun than the 318 was!  No speeding tickets yet!!

glad we have a new site!!!!!

[xs29j8Bullitt]

My name is Allen and I live in north Texas.  I have been in the hobby since before most people gave a darn about the old Mopars... how things have changed!

[TeeWJay426]

Tom here, from southern NH now- grew up in central NY, though. Dad was a service manager for a Dodge dealer for as long as I could remember, so I guess my Mopar addiction is genetic. Currently have a '66 Hemi Charger that I've had for 21 years and counting (owner no. 2) and a '67 Coronet R/T ragtop. Had several other GTX's , Coronets and Chargers in the past, plus a lot of vanilla Mopar transport devices. Am another D-C.com refugee, plus DodgeForum, moparts, 1970registry, cuda-challenger, yahoo 1st gen group, etc.......

[kab69440]

For the few people who I have yet to buy, sell, trade something with or do not know me from chat...
   I am Kenny. I live in Marion, Ohio (per capita, the one-way street capitol of the world)

   My eldest child is a 1969 Charger, put together with anything I could find that I thought looked cool. The mods are too numerous to mention in one post. Still in-process after all these years, but is well on it's way back to the street.   Thanks to everyone for putting up with me.   Hope to see more of you in chat at some point.

[RusTy/SE]

Russ, 47 from Alabama. Currently have 73 Rallye and 70 R/T/SE Challengers. I've had 68 and 70 R/T Chargers in the past and still have the bug for a 70 RT. Thank you, Troy

I'm Allen from the Motor City in Michigan. I'm 27 with no hair (not a cueball though) and I've been married for just over 6 years now.

I have a 66 361 auto (now 383 4bbl) Charger and a 66 318 Polyhead Auto Charger. Both are in various stages of restification.

[69_se_ron]

Howdy all!

I'm Ron in Nashville, Tennessee.  My first car when I was 15 was a '66 Belvedere 318.  When it was totalled I went from the basement to the penthouse with my '69 Charger that I got in 1976.  I was never a big poster on the old site, but I couldn't have made the progress on my Charger without the help of you guys and the old website.  Currently in my possesion is a NOS D-C.com t-shirt that I'm contemplating putting on epay for a coupla million bucks, although with this great new site, I'll probably just list it as "vintage clothing"...haha!

Ya'll gimme a holler if you're down Music City way, we'll have a couple or ten beers and talk Chargers.

[Lowprofile]

Hi Everyone
My name is Chuck. I currently reside in a small town in northern Idaho, about 30 miles south of Spokane, WA. I am originally from Providence, RI. I lived in Vegas for about 9 years. I am an owner/operator- Truck Driver, so most of my year is spent on the road on tour with the WWE. I've worked in the show business side of trucking almost 20 yrs. [I'm 42] I look forward to getting off the road soon and trying to live a more normal life. My new wife [6 yrs now] loves cars [although 65-66 Mustangs are her favorite], so I consider myself very lucky. I have owned mopars all my life. My 1st car was a 69' SE Charger, 383 Auto. Paid $400 dollars for it. I look forward to getting home, diving into my restoration of my 70' R/T, [440,Auto, Dana 60, B5 Blue, White top & Interior] and taking you all with me step by step.


P.S. Thanks Troy, this is a great Site!
