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.![IMG_5373 (Medium).jpg IMG_5373 (Medium).jpg](https://www.forcbodiesonly.com/mopar-forum/data/attachments/4/4440-df1ff5f1e8f5ef6a1e397a020c67cdf3.jpg)
