Expert 5K+ Posts: 5139 Location: cornpatch county, Southwest IOA | It is with mixed feelings I announce that I have sold our beloved 1956 Chrysler. It was a a part of our family for 10+ years and provided many good times . I Built "Betty Lou" from a 30 year entombment which had taken its toll. Into the 56 Chrysler we had at Tulsa. Pics are in "members rides" a few months ago. During that time I was a FL member and made many good friends , and people that are un-forgetable. Several I have met in person. I sold Betty Lou to a person I met while on the way to Tulsa where we traveled to together. His Brother in Law is a current FL member. I will not mention his name in the event he wishes to be anonymous. I am still into Mopars--finishing up a 1964 Dodge B body nostalgia mid 60's street and strip car. And recently aquired a 1968 Plymouth Sport Sattelite which if I live long enough, will be a tribute car to my 1968 Roadrunner 2 dr hdtp which I ordered new..the only new car I ever owned and had to part with it after just a short time. I loved that car ! I will not be totally gone , I will check in from time to time to see what the old timers are up to. Best wishes to all.........................MO | ||

Expert Posts: 2244 Location: Yorba Linda, Ca | Well here's an "Incentive", to get your 64 Dodge done! I bought this one new, when I was a 21 year old kid. It has never been restored, just maintained, alto I did replace the 426 Wedge with a 413, (bored to 420) and built to run on 89 Octane, and she goes like a scalded dawg! Rare also are power windows, for a 64 Dodge. Car was repainted the Original "Midnight Metallic Blue", about 25 years ago or so, and paint is still XLNT. OK, "Nuff Said", get Yours Done NOW!!!!

Veteran Posts: 249 Location: Spencerport, New York | Hang in there Steve, I still treasure the memories of meeting you folks on the way to Tulsa. what a great time we had! The Plymouth was sold last year and I have a great 68 Barracuda Formula S that I enjoy very much (especially the Air Conditioning). I'm still working on the 57 Dodge D100 so maintaining a Forwardlook connection. Hope to have it completed by spring. Good luck with your project and hope to see you someplace in the future. | ||

You remember Clive and his brother -in law Charlie from England ? They were on the Route 66 Caravan that you met up with in St. Louis. Charlie is the guy that bought our 56 Chrysler. I am glad he got it and I know he will cherish it. I certainly would like to meet again, do you go to Carlisle? Best wishes............Steve......................(MO)Hang in there Steve, I still treasure the memories of meeting you folks on the way to Tulsa. what a great time we had!
