Some photos I forgot to post initially, apparently the Chargers Parking spot of many years was a
pet cemetery of some sort :o



Some sort of domestic animal...or is it???  ;)

WHOA!  What's that I see on the door?  Is that two little holes?  What is the fifth letter on the VIN?
I think it's a VERY nice starting point! Especially for being bellied in like it was! If that was here in northern Minnesota, you'd have been pulling out a roof, fenders and doors. (or parts of them)
Looking forward to updates!

I'm impressed you spotted 'em :yesnod:

Any time I see a '68 or '69, or even just a door, those holes are the first thing I look for. :scope:

Allen had about five different video cameras rolling for the big pull and has made a video of the useable views. I had expected to just pull the Charger right out using my truck in 4wd low range. Wouldn't you know it, for the first time ever, my truck failed to go into four wheel drive (need to rebuild the vacuum pump). The Charger finally released its grip in the dirt, but not until I had burned some largish black side slip wheel spin marks into the pristine concrete at Allens DodgeMahal. (Sorry Allen)
