Looks like a rust bucket but its not its far from it, the quarters as you can see had the paint stripped from them and were never sprayed to prevent surface rust from starting and the quarters have some dents so....  the rust is minor but its gonna get the new full quarters to save me from sanding and trying to pull the dents out, because its gonna be a black car . Its a car that came from arizona the trunk pans and floor pans are EXCELLENT absolutley no rust whatsoever on the underneath of the car I could not beleive it. I bought it from a site member here.  here are some pics. And YES its getting my 512 put in

Very nice, it's neat to see the hobby for the second Gen strong as ever.  Gotta ask, Is the 69 in the back ground the red one in the Avatar?  It looks copper color, I love T5 copper color chargers.  Doesn't matter what color it is it looks cool as ever sitting there.

[charge-it]

That looks like this car.

Yep its the same one as the avatar, its hemi orange.     I am really into these cars. I just lost my girlfriend and Im not certain but it might have been becuase of this car. not sure though she never gave me a good reason other than her feelings changed.

i dont know, but you probably got the better end of the deal. theres more women out there than old chargers, but  they cost more.

[mally69]

Another question, is my vin supposed to be on this fender tag?

[HKCharger]

what are the details on that orange charger in the garage i spy?
