I had started working on the Challenger here and there in 2017 when I bought it, but had to take some long breaks due to work. Got a lot done in 2019 and got it running finally. Purred like a throaty kitten after I adjusted the timing, idle, and bleed screws on the cleaned and rebuilt carb, but...
Finally got around to starting a thread to document the restoration progress for my '72 Challenger. More details are in my member garage for this car, but it started life as a triple black base car. I plan on someday restoring it to its former TX9 glory, but will live with the FC7 for now. Plans...
1972 base Challenger w/ 318 (1968 or 1969 engine) purchased in early 2017 after it had been brought up from Florida and stored in a garage (mostly) for about 8 or 9 years. The previous owner had some electrical issues and was unable to get the car running again. Turns out that the main power...
1972 Dodge Challenger. Originally a triple black base model that someone years ago decided to start turning into an R/T tribute. Currently FC7 but will eventually be back to it's TX9 roots. Working on getting it on the road as a good quality driver for now. Purchased in early 2017 from a guy who...
Reported to EBay. We'll see what they do about it. I'm not usually one to "snitch", but selling VINs, fender tags, etc. sets a true enthusiast up for failure when he/she buys a forged Cuda or Challenger R/T and it IS criminal in most, if not all, states. Years after the first post about this and...
Yes, I am aware and addressed that in my original post. It's still a crappy way to do business. Common courtesy would be to reach out to the bidders and give them a head's up, but that is not required by EBay, of course. Like I said...buyer beware.
Folks, be warned if bidding on anything listed by EBay user 'garsige-0'. He's got a bunch of E-body stuff currently listed on EBay. Yesterday, he waited until the last minute on an auction for some A/C ductwork, saw that he wasn't getting as much as he wanted for the items, and abruptly...
Your post inspired me to post a photo of a '70 Panther Pink T/A that I ran into in Kuwait recently. Glad to see that there are Mopar fans in the Middle East!
Stumbled across this nicely done 70 T/A tribute car at a makeshift car show in Kuwait City. It was the only Mopar there, unfortunately. Originally a 1970 318 car. I'm sure the owner was wondering what I was doing when I leaned in to check his VIN. lol
Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! More photos will be coming as I have time to post them. I'll have to dig out the pics of the ones that I let go.
Thanks, Grady. I'm up in Mass. I've got a few photos of the 72 that I'll be posting soon. more to come when I get the car out of the garage and can get around it easier. I have pics of my old 70 and 73 cars that I'll have to dig up.
Hello all. Glad forums like this exist for us enthusiasts to keep the old Mopars alive and to share information and sales listings. Brief backstory...about 25+ years ago I owned a few E-bodies (1973 Challenger, 1971 Barracuda, and finally a 1970 Challenger). Looking back, it kills me that I...
