That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.  It's like saying you're married to a Playboy playmate but you don't want to make love to her because it might mess up her hair.  

You have my deepest sympathies.


I disagree.
I don't think another member should be ridiculed on how they enjoy THEIR car.  :rotz:


That is not ridicule.

It's my car and I do as I please, I saved it from the scrap yard.....it's my choice and I was responding honestly to the post, I have a 65 coupe deville which is my cruiser, a 500 hp duramax which puts out 1000 ft pounds of torque when I wanna go fast on the street, a 2014 ski doo when I wanna go fast on the snow and a 7.4l sea ray when I wanna go fast on the water......and I'm not really into playmates, I prefer porn stars...... :2thumbs:

Nothing wrong with putting a classic Charger up on a pedestal.
My 72 Charger is currently wearing the beater/driver badge. If I'm visiting a friend that lives on a crappy dirt road or going someplace knowing that it might rain before I get home the 72 gets the nod. And I'm sure there are members here that cringe when they hear that.

His car. It's also like having money in the bank.  Nice to look at.

The man's post clearly indicates that he desires to enjoy his car but he won't on the count of how much money is involved in the car.  We all have choices to make, but...

LIFE IS TOO SHORT.  Money is nothing compared to the few joys you can experience during the blink of an eye that is your life on this planet.  

Drive your car, make love to your Playboy wife, die with no regrets and a smile on your face...

Who here has a "playboy" wife.  My old lady is 240lbs. :brickwall:

No doubt but I'm not one of them.  I have no issue at all with someone restoring a car and not driving it much but I would rather see them used.  I like driver cars which is what I have.  I regularly take mine out on the dirt roads and I do drive mine in the rain quite a lot.  I don't think there's anything wrong with it either as long as you maintain the car.  When I make a mess of the car I simply drive it over to the no touch car wash and make it shine again, underside included.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

The OP asked what you use your Charger for, qwick68 gave his answer.
If someone plunked down a sh*tload of money restoring their dream car (that has sentimental value to boot), they can do whatever they want with it. Maybe just looking at the damn thing is what they really enjoy. So what?
I'd much prefer that than the guy that stares out his back window watching it rot & sink back into the earth.

Looks like you've got a nice car there, qwick68.  :yesnod:

Like you've never gotten satisfaction from a playmate, without making love to the actual playmate.    :lol:

I had one that might not have been Playboy but she wasn't a rat in a 200lb sack either.  Cost a butt load to get rid of her and no lawyer or judge cared what she loooked like.

Off topic, but the more "maintenance" your wife has, means it's going to cost you a ton to keep her or get rid of her.
Kind of like a Car I guess.  :scratchchin:

All I have is this Charger.  But it's not for driving.  It's just for lookin' through.
