Hi all,

First I must say it's good to have a place for C-bodies. I have been a life long Mopar fan, starting back when my parents had a 69 TC wagon with a 383. I started out with a 70 Charger and have been bitten by the Mopar bug. Currently I have a 98 Ram SS/T, 68 Barracuda and of course my 62 Newport. Also I have been a member of FABO for two years

On to the Newport,
Meet Rosie, named for the rosewood paint. I found her in south central Ohio for sale on the roadside. The previous owner titled her in 81 and drove it only 110 miles. Rosie sat in a barn from 82 til 2004 when I got her with only 46,000 miles on the clock. Unfortunately Rosie has been sitting for over a year because of brake issues. Rosie made her tv debut on a Sci-Fi channel show about the Mothman in West Virginia, they contacted the car club I was in and needed cars older than 67.

The finned 61s looked better, but still like those 62s. And the gumball instruments are legendary alone.
 
That's debatable and just an opinion....I think I like these better. Nice car and welcome to the board.:welcome:
