Great looking Plymouth! I'll have to show this to my buddy, his road runner (clone) is a 68 also! Here's a thread if you wanna check it out, and welcome to the forum!

Yea, I'm sad I let it go. It was a 24,000 original miles, hardtop 4 speed. The hard tops were very rare as opposed to the sport coupe. At one point we had narrowed it down to 1 of 11 just like it, but I can no longer confirm that.
That car would pull the front wheels off the ground hitting 2nd gear. I had 12.5:1 pistons in her and with decent overlap on th cam didn't have any detonation issues on hi-test pump gas. My wife hated it. We have been married 23 years now, made the right choice! :)

:( I would have kept it. But that's just me. My gf wants me to sell my Charger and get a "family" car, but I refuse. I'm having a prenup done when we get married so that I get to keep my car. :nod:

My brother kept his 03 cobra after being married. nothing really changes if you meet the right one. Usually I would say f (word) off if some chick told me to sell my hearse or something lol!

If you girlfriend wants you to get a family car, there is only one thing to do.

so many things about this are lol! I guess that your neon isnt family car enough for her. Unless if she wants you to buy her a car that is not stick.

I do think that's most of it. But I enjoy driving a stick shift.

My Fiancee doesnt like my shadow, she doesnt 'see the point in makeing it faster' and she doesnt like when i just pop up and say 'hey babe, i got another TD, so ill be working on that one now' but shes never told me to get rid of one..

HA , i am in the same boat, my Fiancee can't stand my 89 daytona shelby. Shes the type of girl that always has to have the latest and greatest, and to her that car is old as hell and out of style...i've had many fights with her about it. She calls it a "Peice of sh*t" and that gets me to go off...and i tell her that when you say that your calling me and my work that....cause theres alot of sweat and tears in this car...and i take alotta pride for it.

Women just don't understand just like guys dont understand why they have to have so many damn purses and shoes.

X 2 :D But what I would like to know is why is it missing the factory dash tach I don't remember the finish panel AND bird sticker on the deck lids. I though the Satelites got the finish panel. However, I love to hear the rumble and would mind a little spin behind the wheel. You haven't lived until you've driven in a Hemi 4speed car WITH a bench seat. WOW!!! :eyebrows:

skitzo and 89shelbyguy, i'd dump those gals if I were you. If they don't like it now, it will get worse after you get married, ask me how I know ....
