I got nuttin.  At the cruise I go to there are a few guys that have their original Darts and a Road runner with the original black paint since 1969 when they all bought them new together.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Yup, bought the 70 RT in my sig in November '99 when I was 16. It is my very first car.

In hindsight I was lucky to have trusting parents that helped me buy a 440 Six Pack Charger RT at the young (and plenty dumb) age of 16.

I took it down to restore in 2003, and just started driving it again in 2008.

Nothing elese like it.

My first Mopar was an '86 K car that i drove to college freshman year, 1993.  Sold that the next year though.  Still have my first Charger though.   :yesnod:

I still have mine, purchased it in 1978 for $750, straight as an arrow.  Hasn't been on the road in 20 years and I just started it a few months ago after not being run for 10 years!  That will change this year, working to get it road worthy.
Do I have the last, operational Popcar Spacemobile?

Two separate cars.  1st car (it was dad's) is a 68 Cutlass while 1st Mopar is the 69 Charger.  Both rest comfortably in our garage.  My bride's minivan, on the other hand, lives out on the street.  If you're over our house ever, it's best to avoid that particular topic...
