Welcome to FEBO! Thanks for the pics, the red car is blocking the view of the great looking 71 Challenger! Lol, just kidding. Nice set of classic verts! :)

Have the Chevelle 6 years and the Challenger 6 months. Just started working on the HEMI engine and front suspension. Probably will take a year to get it the way I like, although I'm having to relearn a lot I've forgotten about MOPAR.
Thanks for the welcome!

:welcome: to FEBO from New Jersey
Great pair of classic verts!
Way back in the day (1975) I owned a duplicate of your hemi-orange/black interior Challenger vert.
It was originally a 383 HP automatic with disc brakes and a rallye dash.
Back when it mattered less, I pulled the big block and installed a small block 340.
I picked it up for $500 with the rear shock mount torn up from air shocks; Dodge dealer installed a new shock mount panel for a few hundred dollars back then,
Car originally had a flat hood; of course I added the RT hood and the quarter panel scoops.
Your car brought back those long lost memories. If I only knew, It would have been one of my keepers.

It would be a blast if you ended up with my old car!
Anyway; nice cars.
Glad you signed up!
