Here are 2 of my babies

First off is my (far from original) '74 340 Plymouth Duster. Running a 1970 340 T/A (6-Pack) engine, bored .100 over :shock: Forged Domed Pistons, 12:1 Compression, 340 T/A (J) Heads, 484 Lift Mopar Performance "Purple" Camshaft, '71 340 4BBL Intake (because i can't find where i put the 6-Pack Carbs) with an 850cfm Thermoquad carb, Aluminum Rods, Forged Crank, Balanced Rotating Assembly

Backed by a Torqueflite 727 with a Full Manual Shift Kit and an 8-3/4" Chrysler Rear End (489 Case) with Sure Grip & 4.10 Gear Ratio

It also had quite a few factory options like A/C, Rear Defrosters, Rallye Wheels, Rallye Mirrors, Internal Hood Release, Light Package, ect

And here's a shot of it parked by my dad's (mostly numbers matching) '73 340 Plymouth Duster (with 56,000 original miles on his car :shock: Mine has 103k on it)

And my 1965 "Formula S" Plymouth Barracuda, i picked this baby up about a year ago for $800, with the original 273 still under the hood. It had been parked since 1986, but after cleaning the Points, throwing a battery in it and filling an Antifreeze Jug with gas it fired up and purred like a kitten :D

(yeah that's my '72 340 4-Speed Dodge Demon parked beside that Caravan.. Numbers Matching Car with every option available :shock: )

I used to own a 74 and a 71 Twister, those are really fun cars to work on and to own.
