Default RE: Battle of the Mopar Small Blocks!

I've just spent thousands of dollars on my Challenger and it will be driven on the street Not much point in doing it if you are just going to put it in the garage and dream about driving it. I live in the south and if you want a muscle car you can still get one. Look at the price spent on a Toyota or Nissan and you could be driving a car from the 70s. Are they as easy to drive as a new car... no but we drove them like that all the time and had no problems I say persistance pays off and if you already have the car, then the motor is just a look away. I want to pass on the Hot Rodder tradition. Thats all I've ever been and now it has come full circle and the cars I kept when it was insane to have them... well now I was a smart investor. Not! I just love the V-8 cars of my youth. And when I'm in them I am young again Except for the eye sight and hearing and a aches and pains and... well you get the picture
