Hi, my name is Ed and I recently bought myself my first Mopar.
Which is my second American car if you count a chevy dayvan me and the mrs owned a few ears ago.

the car is a 1965 Dodge Coronet which I imported a few months ago.
Currently a non runner but very solid and has the old original paint look that I love.
This is it in the states

When I picked it up from Southampton.

This is when I fitted some slotmags that I also got from the states too.

Image

and on my drive next to my wifes bug

Image

hopefully removing the engine this week...

which I will be asking some advice on!! :D

If Sam says he dated a girl nearby, just ask around locally. That will tell you all you need to know about him !
