Bought a 1969 Charger Survivor

[69bronzeT5]

What was the fate of the Superbees that donated the garage wall art?

The super bee decals were cut from some modern (2008-2012) Charger SRT8 Super Bees I parted out.

Sent you a PM the other day

I would love to find a survivor like that. Very nice.

Well today was a rough day. It was such a nice day that I was determined to take it out for a drive. I was on a four lane blacktop and At the intersection ahead, a truck was on my left and he was signaling to turn right and drive north. As he pulled out, a late model GMC Sierra behind him pulled out. The 17 year old kid who was driving, decided to gun it across all 4 lanes of traffic. The Sierra slammed into my front left fender and spun me around. I slid sideways into the ditch. I hit the steering wheel and am bruised/beat up but I walked away, which I am grateful for. I have a wonderful wife and 5 children that need me; so I feel pretty lucky. That being said, the old Charger did well. I was doing 55mph and I'm not sure how fast the other guy was going be he was in a hurry.

Glad you are ok!
Can the Charger be saved or is it to early to know? It looks bad but not past saving!

Please do.

I would much rather rebuild that car than rebuild a total rustbucket.

Glad to hear you weren't hurt.  What a shame. 

[darbgnik]

Well at least you are ok!

But still, I can't help but stare at all that perfectly solid crumpled metal....... no shards of bondo sticking off everywhere, what a shame......

I know! It was a once in a lifetime find: a survivor 383 Charger with 95% original paint. The 383 had never even been out of the car! The car was a time capsule that had been off the road from about 1986-2015.

Glad you were okay.

[CDN72SE]

Glad you are okay and such a shame to see what happened to the car.

[wingcarenvy]

Glad you are OK. People today are getting less and less skilled at the art of operating a vehicle. This is the result. Well I hope the person that hit you is well insured so that this car can be restored back to its former glory. Scary to think about what can happen out there on the road.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.

Thanks Bodie for the Kind offer. I need to see how the other guy's insurance treats me and I'm going through some things right now as a result of the crash so please offer up some prayers for me. It's been a tough week....I'll share more in a bit.
