Glad I was admitted in here, thank you. I do not have neither, F, M nor J body car, but I have a well, guess my nick says it all. A '65 Dart, it is a 4 door.
Originally I am from Norway, far north. In the A bodies only forum I have a thread about my Dart and history of that, and also my mistake ending up with Fords. But back with Mopar now, and I am 58. It sort of took it's time, but I am happy I am on the right side now.
Anyway, I think from 1991 or so, and up to 2012-13, 40 weekends a year more or less, I drove by a tiny little farm where it was sitting a Dodge Aspen outside the barn. It sat with the front to the road, and it was a station wagon. For all those years, I was looking at that Aspen, driving a Ford, and dreaming about that Aspen. On Friday when passing it one way, and on Sunday when passing it the other way on my way back home. I am still dreaming about that Aspen, but now I am living in northern California, my wife is from here.
I have a '04 Grand Marquis as my daily driver, and it sits out here sometimes in front of the Dart, sometimes behind it, and I still dream about an Aspen, either 4 door, or a station wagon would even be better. I have no place to fix it, or whatever. Can not afford one that is all shiny and restored by someone else, but still dreaming.
Looking almost every day online to see if there is one that fits my wallet and is close enough. Perhaps a running and rolling project. No idea if it will happen, but the dream is there.
225 would be completely fine, A/C is a must if I am ever going to take my wife for a drive, Power steering too, and automatic.
Well, life is not always easy.
Perhaps this ended up in the wrong forum here...
