Car(s) owned: Currently none. Looking for a mid -
late 60's model.
Self-Introduction: Hello, I'm a 50 year old
Mopar nut that is into building big block mopars. Past Mopars include a
64 Fury 318, 65 Belvedere 318, 65 Satellite 318, 66 Imperial coupe, 66
Belvedere 383 4 speed convertible, 66 Dodge Monaco 383, and currently a 67
Belvedere that I'm building a 451 stroker motor for. I'm a patrol
sergeant in the county sheriff's office, and a member of the 1962 to 1965
Mopars Club. My younger brother has a 1970 Cuda 4 speed that I just built a
440 for. This motor has the scarce crossram intake, 12 to 1 compression
and is a screamer to say the least.
I plan on buying a mid to late 60's
Imperial for my 15 year old daughter's first car. Might as well start
out with the best! While at a local NASCAR event, I obtained a set of
rules and was suprised to see that the regional demolition derby scantioning
group will not allow a Imperial to enter. At least people won't be
intentionally destroying them.
I love the earlier
Imperials. Nothing rides better and the power is there when you need
it. I have been reading the archives on engine repair and found it's a
great place to get ideas and help when I get stumped on things. I can
put in my 2 cents worth with things that I've tried that did/didn't work
too. You guys/gals have an outstanding site. Mopar
fanatics?....Sign me up! Joe Reiss - Kelso, WA (40 miles North of
