I am in Plainville right next to   Southington and the home of ESPN bristol.     :icon_smile_cool:

And yes I owe her big time.   The funny thig is she dosen't even want to drive it.   she just want ride in it and hold on.   I figure the least I could do is offer for her to drive it.   But she really doesn't want to.   Well not yet.   wait until she hears it then she will.

I had a big wth moment for a second but first of congrats on the find.
That very car was once owned by someone name Joe Pulaski aka fastgnrl, someone who scams people here and everywhere mopar.
I tried to buy that car from him, long before i knew who he was or what he was like.
In the end it didn't go through because of lots of warnings from people here and on moparts.
I still have pics of it.
It seems that you bought it from someone else and i'm glad you did, it's a great project for a very nice price.If you got it from the guy who bought it from Pulaski then he didn't make a big profit it seems, i know what he asked when i wanted it and it's not much less than your price.

I remember that car when it was on ebay a while ago. I was bidding on it, but it went for like 8 or 9 grand and I wasn't going to pay that much for it. So you got it for 5600...you lucky dog :icon_smile_big:
Good luck with it and keep us posted on the progress :2thumbs:

your wife sounds cool, my wife is the same way... she can hardly wait til my charger is done... almost as much as i do, and she never bitches about money i've spent for parts, tools ,etc. In fact she's been an extra set of hands when i've needed them, you know holding stuff, etc. When i tore down the 440 to take it to the machine shop she wanted to help and she jumped right in gettin her hands all greasy...... it gave me a rise in my levi's..lol

as far as children we have 2 beautiful girls ages 2 & 4, and their births, being new parents, extra expence (diapers, toys, formula, toys, clothes, toys, whips, toys) has maybe set the completion of my car back longer than i expected..... its worth it!

cudaken

 You did pretty good Tin. As far as your wife not wanting to drive it, mine won't even ride in mine now. Something to do with a 6-71 Blower hang over the fender's.

Far as dog's, they are the best! Like them better than people most of the time.

   Now comes the fun part.

but i just stole her puppy money.

How much do puppies cost?
I paid around $600 for my poodle/pomerianan mix Bandit. I think it ended up being almost $1000 once all the other items were purchased (kennel, food/water bowls, food, coller, leash, etc.).

Anywho, congrats on your purchase and keep us posted :cheers: !
