    I thought I'd post some pic's of my buddy Rick's 70 Challenger RT that we've been tinkering with. It's a "Go Mango" 440, Dana rearend car, really awesome car! Tucked away in a garage for 20+ years, and a little rusty, but well worth saving. So it's in Mike's (My buddy that did my green Mav) good hands for some well needed surgery! This is where it all starts, and gets $$$ from here on in, but well worth it :D (I'm excited to help work on it, and see it completed) Pretty much all original, other than a bad color change to Black.

    That was always one of my favorite cars...

    Be sure to post some "in progress" and "After" pics.

    I love them cars! It's not the same, but I had a 71 Challanger when I was 17. That is 1 of the cars I wish I still had. I drove that car in my driveway on many anights. Keep us posted.

    I had a 69 Charger but never a Challenger. Beautiful design.
