    New Here

     





    Newbie here. Found site by accident, liked what I saw at first glance, thought I would sign up, dues seems to be something I can afford. I am a MoPar guy, so I may be loner here.

    My hotrod is a 48 DeSoto Delux - 4dr - 392 Hemi w/2-4's - 727TF with MoPar rear. Basically all MoPar.

    I hope I can be of some help to others here, but I must confess, I am a computer idiot, and not most smartest person, but hopefully over 62 years here on this earth, I have learned something I can share

    Welcome aboard, Jack! You won't be alone... there are quite a few Mopar literates around here. I'm a BBC guy myself... lots of sharp guys here and no doubt you'll have plenty to contribute with your wealth of experience.

    Let's see some pics of your hotrod...

    I am a computer idiot, remember my introduction. I can barely type, let alone post a picture. There is a 'puter guy here in the office, maybe he can help. I will ask..

    Welcome aboard. No, you aren't alone in your Mopar affliction. Lots of guys on here are. Mike P, for one is building a great little '57 Plymouth with a Hemi in it, and there are other nice cars on her also.

    I love it when a particular brand car stays that brand all the way through. Something just isn't right about looking into a cavernous '50 Caddy engine room and seeing this tiny little sbc in there. Glad to see your Mopar is mopowered.

    Welcome aboard MoparJack44!

    You won't ruffle my feathers. Glad to have another Mopar fanatic. I drive a 34 Plymouth sedan, not currently all Mopar as it has a sbc under the hood. Rather have the 392 than to be computer proficient, so if you get tired of it I will give you my shipping address. Got a outfit near me that specializes in Mopar engines and parts. They have been trying to sell me either a fresh 440 or a rebuilt 426 . Both sound and look good but price has got to get better.

    So stay awhile, enjoy yourself and give us some pix of the Mopar.

    Thanks 34. I have another Hemi (291 from a 55 DeSoto), I am sending to machine shop this week. It was engine in car when I bought it. Dropped a valve while out of town on vacation couple of summers ago. Just getting around to having it looked at.

    Thanks to all for warm and fuzzy welcome. Me thinks me will stick around for a while. I have been active member of www.moparstyle.net for many years, and is a great board, great bunch, but more into muscle cars than street rods.

    No, Jack! Don't take that attitude! Feel free to ruffle whatever feathers you please!

    Yep. Mopar guys (I'm one too)) are in the minority, I guess, but the prople here treat each other with good humored respect and admiration whatever their preferences are.

    You have probably noticed that Information, advice, and even emotional support are freely shared here, but profanity and vulgarity are not.

    So you'll like it. Welcome!
