Hello everyone 
As I'm new I thought I'd share some of my motors with you. My current sqeeze is a 1967 Dodge Charger with a 383
Prior to that I've had a whole heap of VWs including a 1973 Fastback...
A Beach Buggy...
A V5 New Beetle...
And a mildly modded PT Cruiser as a daily...

Thanks guys
The Charger is great car, it has such a presence. I'm used to attention in cars like the buggy but the Charger seems to get respect from all different kinds of people. You can't park it up without asking questions from someone or other. It just cruises about if you have it in drive but slip the column change down to first and all hell lets loose It has about 350bhp and 450 ft/lb tourque. Doesn't really do corners though and it cost me 50p per mile in petrol on mt trip to Le Mans Classic 
It's worth it though.
Docevi1 yeah I love Shelby 'stangs too, awesome cars

I've just had an idea, if you could get to San Fransisco we could replicate the Bullit chase It was a Black '68 Charger 440 R/T. During filming the Mustang had to have extensive repairs to the suspension after making the jumps. the Charger had no work done at all. Also the Charger had to back off the throttle in the chase scenes as the 'stang couldn't keep up. The engine of the 'stang was dubbed over with a GT40 engine.
66/67 Chargers have appeared in Big Fish and Ed TV. Other chargers in films/TV are 68s in Blade, Blue Velvet a 69 as the General Lee, and a 70 in the Fast and the Furious.

Hi Tuttle,
No I've never had a Ghia. Thinking of buying one? If you need any advice go to the forums on www.volkszone.com it's a great forum.
I found some more pics of my cars...

1974 1303 Bug:
Lowered and smoothed X19 with twin webber 40s...
