Was Told By A Friend

[MoparManJim]

First off I'm not sure where this post would fit in at so mod's if I post it in the wrong zone please move it to the correct place please. 

Okay, how would you feel if you was told by a friend of yours that you should keep a eye on your charger as it might turn up missing one of these days? I was told that yesterday by a good friend of mine, because I haven't work to much this year on my charger as I need to find a good welding machine. He wants the charger for get this a demo car! That is all he thinks of is demos  . He said the car would look nice out on a demo derby track. His brother has a project car also (a firebird) and I wonder if he has ever thought about using his brothers car for a demo car. Each time I run into my friend he always ask me when am I going to give him the charger for a demo car. I wonder what all his friends would think if I told them what his plans are with a classic car  . I bet he would loose afew friends real fast as they are some what into classic cars them self's.

I also always keep hearing "your not ever going to get that thing on the road, so why don't you give it to me for demo car". Well like I told him yesterday that I started to make a list of local people (friends and relatives) that has said that about me not ever going to get the charger on the road so when I do..  and I'm going to pay them alittle visit with the charger. So far I have around 5 well make that 6 names on the list.

Hard to believe that there are people who walk amongst us that have no love for the Chargers....... so sad

What you should do Jim is, get a truck and move/hide the Charger and then go to your friend and ask him what the hell he did with your car (act as if it were stolen). Then threaten him with the cops. Make sure you video tape his expression

I can't hide the car, it kinda has no rear in it right now.   

But I like your idea though.. and will keep that in mine for future ref maybe for next year.

Yea, tell me about it. My one cousin said the same thing also back in the summer and also last year as well. Like I said when I get the charger done I will be making a friendly trip to each person place to visit them for alittle while. 

I even had one young boy stop in not long ago with his girlfriend. he was in a rice burner and fart can. He stop in to check out the car an at first I thought he was going to say something about why do I have a car like a charger for. BUT to my surprise he didn't and yet wanted to look at it as he had the muscle car bug growing on him sense he seen my car when he went up and down past my place and his girlfriend said he been wanting to stop in to look at the car close up. He even knew what the car was but the year threw him off though.. I told him about the site here. But when I told him about what some of the people said about that I should junk the car or give it to them for a demo car he look at me and ask why and then said I should get it fix back up and back on the road. Now this came from a young man that was into ricers and was looking to get into the muscle car world.

Demo Derby cars should be restricted to 80s square shazboxes only. stuff people don't care about

I don't even see where this is a problem, get a base ball bat, and go visit this moron that keeps wanting your Charger, explain to him the next time you hear those words out of his mouth you'll knock his F-ing teeth down his throat.

Why do you people over think these things? LOL

Well this friend is a far out cousin of mine. One of three brothers to be honest.. one is upstate right now for something really stupid (it was nothing to do with fighten either). His other brother the one that has the firebird's wonders I think about him also at times and at times even him and his brother doesn't get along. My far out cousin just doesn't understand the classic cars and muscle cars I don't think. yesterday I was going to say something but I just bit my tug and left it kinda go really as I thought there was no use in arguing with him.   

But like I thought though, if the car ever does go missing, I will go to the cops and tell them and I will also reveal his name so you all know who to look out for. I don't think my far out cousin understand that there is wide base of old charger fans out there. And for them to hear he wanted to use a old charger for demo derby car would go over very well.

I've seen this movie before.

[A383Wing]

I think ya maybe need some new friends??

(pick me!! pick me!!)

I hate to say this, but the sofa doesn't even scare him.. heck it doesn't me either for the matter.   

This guy is like me almost, it takes alot to scare him.

[MoparManJim]

I think ya maybe need some new friends??

(pick me!! pick me!!)

I thought you was my new friend?

I did pick you  for a new friend when I join up on the club here so why are you my old friend?   

Alot of the younger adults are now starting to talk to me anymore because of the charger as they want to learn about the old american muscle cars from back in the day as I understand it they have only seen compact cars and and drive rice burners mostly and not really been around much of full size cars unless they are at the demo derby's. I can just think how it will be when the charger is finish and on the road and the younger adults sees it. 

[bull]

Not to inject any logic here but any chance the guy was joking. I know, it's a crazy notion but...

[472 R/T SE]

I think bull may be on to some thing.



But...

So how will someone steal it?

Okay, I wasn't to clear, my fault on that. My charger does have a rear end in it but the car doesn't have now quarter skins on though or truck floor either. The leafs and rear end is under the car and some what bolted in place. But the rear portions of the car is not on the car though as in skins and things are hardly bolted in yet. BUT knowing my friend he would know guys that can hook onto the car and yank it out from where it is from. remember this guy doesn't care to much for a classic vehicle as he wants to demo them.  

Most of the time I would take what he says as a joke BUT the way he said it yesterday didn't even come close to sounding like a joke though, he look at the car when he said it and his tone in his voice wasn't a joking voice either as it was a tone of being serious. And he is starting to have a back ground for certain things anymore also     

I also heard something that he did two times. I won't say where but let put it like this.. he went into a store got a shopping cart and filled it with tools and then tried to push the cart out the door! then went to another store days later and tried the same thing!  

Now after knowing that, and hearing from afew people.. that is nothing to joke about!    

[Charger-Bodie]

So he is going to hang new sheetmetal on it to Demo it.....I think you may have fallen into this one a little deep.

[mauve66]

i think the guy is saying at the rate your going he'll do more justice by the car by making it a demo and driving it than it sitting in your shop forever..................

[Ghoste]

Or maybe you just need new friends??

[HPP]

He's yanking your chain just to get this kind of reaction out of you.

Any derby guy worth a salt knows a unibody Charger is worthless as a derby car and won't last but maybe a single round of action before it is too bent to be useful.
