The plymouth is/was my first car, I was intent on building up the motor (it has a 318 in it right now) to a 360, possibly stroked out to a 410, but the truck project has kind of gotten in the way (that, and buying a new raptor 700 for the desert ). So basically right now it's sitting under a car cover, gets driven once a week at least, and just paid the registration today



The raptor:

Wait now so you are into classic cars, lifting trucks, and playing off road with atvs; you are officialy my hero. Do you like the new Raptor; I ahd a 2001 and I sold it because I refused to put new starters in it every month and 2 gear finally went. I ahve the polaris predator(2004) and so far have no compalints after 2 years now. I wonder how them new raptor perform.

Yep, oh, and boats and building motors.

I love it so far, i rode a 2003(?) 660 for a while (it had a bunch of mods), before i bought the new one. The fuel injection is a nice thing, it's dependable, quick, etc., does good in hard pack or sand. It was the 2005 50th annivesary (yellow & black) but I got pink plastics as a surprise

HEY! You're from Hotboats! And from looking at her picture, DT doesn't stand a chance. You'll find out who she is soon enough. Where exactly is Redondo, CA? I'm in Huntington Beach at least 2 - 3 times per year.

It'd be up the parking lot 405. And I thought the Plymouth was for sale...? Oh yeah, my toys are in my sig. Hopefully I'll be able to drag it out to California sometime soon. My uncle and his friends are always at Havasu with their toys.

You need to get rid of that Chrysler outboard and get a nice used Merc 135 on that thing.
