Default New to Forum And Glad to Be Here!

Hello all! Thanks for having me. Just wanted to say hi and tell you alittle bit about me. I own a 1988 Plymouth Fury that use to be a police cruiser. It has a tough as nails 318 with an automatic and not much else. It has rubber floor covering, basic vinyl seats, and an incredible suspension system, this ugly thing will handle. It is definitely the uglyest thing I've ever ownered but it is as reliable as an old mutt dog. My other vehicle is a newly acquired 1961 Dodge Power Wagon W200 4x4. I just got the engine running 2 days ago and it runs great. Didn't have to do anything to it but give it some fresh gas and a fresh battery. All it needs now is a clutch master cylinder and alittle electrical work. It has a 225 inline six, 4 speed, and a PTO. This truck is an ugly beast. I also own two Jeep Grand Wagoneers and a 1965 Amc Rambler American. Anyway, thanks for having me and hope to share alittle Q&A with ya'll.

Well that didn't work, Let's try again.


Sorry they came out really large. It is running good now, just need to work on brakes and clutch and I'm thinking an Olive Drab Green paint job with the old Army Star on hood and doors.

Tank is probably the best way to describe this thing. It has a 225ci Slant Six (looks like a 400ci Slant Six) with a 4-speed and a divorced 205,I think, transfer case with PTO, Dana 60 rear, and Dana 44HD closed knuckle front axle.
