I have a line on a fairly solid 72 Formula 400 4-speed but if I bring another car home, I may be the subject of an intervention.

I am trying to thin out the herd and I have too many projects as it is. I know if I buy another hotrod, I'll have my efforts dilluted even more.
I stopped at a yard sale one day, tenants were moving out of the house they rented. I was poking around and found a dusty 1970 TA, white with blue stripes, in an old chicken coop. It was in excellent shape. They didn't know who owned it and I was never able to track down the owner. It might still be in there. About a mile up the road from that is a barn full of Mopars that I may try to score some day.

PS: Is this the one that Bucky broke?

That clutch was old enough to vote.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Love the early 70's TA's.
Unfortunately, mine doesn't have the WS6 package, but is otherwise fully optioned.
