"An aggressive exterior with power to match was enough to pull in the performance boys-especially when abetted by a pair of pipes blaring out the back, and brawny red-sidewall rubber hitting the pavement."

I didn't realize the engine was out of the 68?

Hi Brian... I took the numbers matching Hemi out in the early 1980s, and ran a 1970 Hemi in it that was from a 1970 Super Bee VIN# WM23R0G167075, but I sold that engine with my 1970 Hemi Cuda last year.  The numbers matching engine will be going back in when the Hemi Charger is restored.

Awesome!

I agree!   :2thumbs:

Wish both you and the car could have been at Talladega - would love to have seen it first-hand, and catch up on how you're doing these days. 

Great job, Allen (& Ken too)!
