So, it's been FOREVER since I've been on here, literally years (a lot of years!), glad to see so many of the names of the members that I remember from years ago are still on here!  I think I initially joined back in like 2002 and had a couple thousand posts back when the board crashed and everyone lost their post count (that was a looooong time ago!).  In facct, I actually got my R/T through a wanted ad that I posted up here in like 2002!  I've got a couple of projects that I had put on hold for quite a while and now have a real itch to get back to them.  I've spent the last 6-7 years spending all my free time working mainly on vintage/antique Harley's and British bikes, haha, what can I say, motorcycles are smaller, I can cram more of them into my shop, and there's A LOT less body work that takes place on a vintage chopper than there is on a b-body!  Anyway, back to the cars, I've got two '68 4-speed cars.  One of them is a super clean GG1 green 383 4-speed with no drive train.  The other is my baby, it's a #'s matching '68 R/T 4-speed with all the paperwork back to when it was sold new by Mr. Norm out of Grand Spaulding Dodge in Chicago.  My Mr. Norms car is originally a PP1 red, white bumble bee stripe, non-vinyl top, black interior, console 4-speed, with very few options, and that's exactly how it'll be restored.  Happy to be back and looking forward to digging through all the info I've missed in the last few years!
