Well, as the subject title reflects, 4 more days until my journey to pick up the '70 six pack v-code Charger R/T I bought. My passion to find another one to replace my previous one has been fullfilled..... So, to those you have a quest to get their dream car, never give up... I'll be taking pics all along the way so I'll have a story when I get back... I'll be meeting the gentleman who bought my v-code 'Cuda at the town where I'm going to pick up my future Charger. This will help me and the cost in that he'll pay for my traveling cost half way. That'll be a nice chunk of change saved...... I'll have a buddy going with me, so it should be a very cool Mopar weekend........

 ???  I never thought the 2nd Gen Chargers had the option of a six-pack?!  I thought it was only for the other B-bodies.  Is that what the V-code stands for?  ???

Way to go Troy. You had better post plenty of pics of the new car when you pick it up.

Looking forward to seeing some pics of the new ride.

Those kinds of trips are what make this hobby fun, aren't they?

Can't wait to see the whole car, Troy!

I wish that the multiple times I"ve made long trips to purchase a Charger that someone would go with me. The only person I seem to be able to drag along to "help" me is my wife. Not too much help when I do all the driving, and she does all the sleeping. Then I do all the checking over the car, and she does, well whatever she does while still staying in the truck.

Congratulations Troy!   :thumbs:

A garage with a '68, '69 & a '70 - pretty neat!   :yesnod:

This purple Charger guy? If so, I bet I know where any missing parts from your car went.  :icon_smile_big:


The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I do believe so. The rims look slightly different, but then again, I'm not good with my memory skills and aftermarket wheels..
