Good evening actually been a member for a little while, just getting around to the intro. My first new Mopar was at the age of 20 1974 Dodge van, remember the Van craze. Didn't have it a year and I cut it all up in the yard. Boy where my parents pissed. Cut the roof off put on a olds vista cruise roof and T-Tops up front, molded in back, gull wing side door, flares, louvered hood, 340 ,4 speed. I am all grown-at up now at 68, Not really. Business is a restoration shop. my driver is a 70 Cuda conv't, 6.1 stroked to 426, twin screw supercharger, viper 6 speed, full air ride. Rubber bumper and a shaker. Haven't cut or touch the body. Projects, Daytona 440 4 speed, 69 Charger sunroof resto mod, hellcat 6 speed, tucked bumpers. 47 Dodge pickup truck as a rat rod. And few more projects. will this ever end. I hope not. Good thing I am retired. Well that's enough. Love the sight for all the info and HELP. Thanks and B safe out there

Welcome from Northern California! Fun story. I had a '77 Tradesman not too long ago. Loved that van.

Would love to hear a little more about the 69 sunroof charger restomod! Is it originally a factory sunroof car? I wonder if I have come across it already for the Mopar Sunroof Registry? Thanks for any details you can provide!
Scott.
