My dad has been wanting an old car of any type that he can workon.  Well as a surprise for him his step wife started asking around at work and learned of a 71 charger that a coworker had behind his house that he recently purchased.  All he new was that it was a charger and that was it.  While she paid the asking price of 350 dollars and got the titile everything.  Well when dad went to pick it up, he found out that it is a 71 charger RT!!!!   :icon_smile_tongue: complete 440 with 4 spd as well.  I haven't seen this car yet since we live about an hour away from each other but from what dad says the body is in decent shape but it while need complete restoration.   He also said that when he tried cranking it, it actually turned over.  Will get pics soon
