New Guy, (Sort Of), Own Two First Gens

Hi,

I have been on this forum a few times in the past and decided to try and make more friends outside of the first gen only forum. I have both a 66 and 67 Charger. The 66 is a 361, PS,PB factory air console auto; the 67 is a 383 2Bbl, PS,PB, factory air console auto. I'm in the process of putting my 67 back together after a repaint in 2010 and new interior, trim, etc...Look forward to getting to know a bunch of folks on DC.com. In case anyone is interested, I also repair Mopar A, B, and C body gauges from 60-74.

Thanks,

Mark Gibson

Hi Mark!

gibber

We moved from Rochester NY this time last year to just north of Phoenix (Sun City). They are building super garage homes and once I saw you could fit 6 cars in there, I was sold. The home builders asked if we would do a video spot to be used for their advertising pitch in model homes, so this is my 45 seconds of fame I guess..lol! The 72 hemi Orange Roadrunner in the video is sold, the green Dodge is a NOM 71 340 Demon (I bought it for my wife). We also have a NOM 71 340 Duster plus the 2 Chargers of course......

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Welcome!   Always nice to meet new Mopar friends!!  I lived in Rochester when I was a wee lad and returned for college at RIT.  Many memories. Sounds like you made quite a move? For fun or for work?

Absolutely love Arizona. Scottsdale, Mesa (and I've got to include Sedona) are some of our favourite places. Never miss visiting there when we're in the country.  :2thumbs:

Boy do I envy you your garage space or more to the point the height. Just can't get a hoist into mine.

Very nice.  I have a 67 with vinyl top in the same color as your car but my top and interior are white.

Glad to see you found us Mark. Missed you at the Pep Boys show today. We got lots of pics and some videos. Dean got his car going, had it on the dyno. Rich had his on it and Rob put his beast on it too. The price was right you know.
