Welcome old timer!
My first Mopar was a slant 6 '71 Plymouth Duster that I built into a race car with a fire breathing 440, 727 transmission, 5.38 rear axle, etc. Built everything myself, including the transmission. Finished it in 1978 after graduating from automotive trade school and raced it into the mid '80's and amazingly it never broke. Then dropped out of racing completely until 2021 when I ordered a Challenger 1320 to race, it is so much fun! I've owned too many Mopars to count over the years and unfortunately didn't keep a single one; most of them would be worth more than I paid for my first house by now! Oh well...
