Got my charger home today. I was the winning bidder on ebay for 688 bucks.  It has a dana 44 axle, all sway bars intact, 4 speed pedals, buckets, and that bulge hood that I keep running into.The hood looks better in person than it did in the pictures. Most of the parts that are missing I happen to have laying around in my basement.

Nice score Terry. I guess that answers my question about a Dakota pulling a Charger on a trailer. If your Jeep could do it, a Dakota could. I wanted to bid on that car sooooooooooo bad because it is the same thing my first Charger was. But I didn't have the resorces to get it home at the moment. You ever wanna sell it  ;) :D

Holy Crap you pulled that car 200 miles with a Liberty?   :o  that sounds like something i would do... :icon_smile_big:

Nacho-RT74

what it happens... don't you trust on your own USA vehicles ? what makes you think a Liberty isn't able to do it ??? damn is just a trailer, true towing 2 tons of iron, but they are over wheels.

By the way... being a 74 please if still has wiring underdash and who knows the rest, check the threads I dedicated to 74 owners on elec section :D ( there are three of them :D )

Ok good news. The seller sent me the fender tag and build sheet from the car in the mail.I got it today. I forgot to get it when I picked the car up. The seller, 1958300, who is also a member here, honored the ebay auction and took care of me too. He helped load the car and made sure I had most all my parts before I left.

WM23N1

I may call the seller about it. Not really to worried about it though. The car has the dana 44 axle. I looked on the build sheet it lists d53 and d91. I looked it up on the decoder websites and that tells me 3:23 gears and a sure grip axle. It also shows wheel color as tx9(black). I bet this thing had hubcaps when it was new.
