Well, since I've had a week to recover and allow things to settle down I figured I would let you guys know what's going on. I haven't been spending a large amount of time on the site due to the fact that I am finishing up with college and looking forward to graduation in May. I also haven't been spending any time working on any of my Chargers due to a lack of funding. Many of you know how much work my car needs so when the opportunity to get a car, although it's not a Charger, that was in great shape arose, I couldn't pass up this deal.

Last weekend I loaded my truck and trailer up and drove from Pennsylvania to Louisiana to meet the man we all know as Trav (69charger2002). Thanks to his willingness to work with me, I now own a car that I might actually be able to finish sometime this decade...

Honestly, I have no idea. I have yet to look at the fender tag long enough to check the paint code...

Checked the tag last night. The car is originally a PP1 red car. Probably won't end up being that color in the end...

Until I get out of school and life settles down or AMD decides to hand me the keys to their warehouse the Charger is playing third or fourth cello... :brickwall:

Thanks again Trav. :2thumbs: It was a drive for sure, 2200+ miles round trip, but it was worth it for sure! I'll make sure I send some pictures of the car as I get work done to it.
