It appears that the upgrade forces a login and many, many of you have forgotten your passwords and didn't set up any reminders. Contact me directly through helpmelogin@dodgecharger.com and I'll help sort it out.

I thought the Charger site dissappeared forever...good to see it is still breathing  ;D  Thanks Troy and whoever else was involved for puting this back together.  I have an update on my charger, too.

Thanks to the sale of an old dirt bike two weeks ago I was finally able to get the Charger back on the road after its two year hiatus in restoration land.  I installed a new pitman arm and an outer tie rod and had the front end aligned.  From there, it went back to the body shop for a new windshield and an exhaust.  It got 3" from the headers to the mufflers and it dumps out right before the rear of the car.  It sounds great and finally the rattling is gone under the body.  It is still at the body shop, however, and it is getting a dent taken out of the rear passenger 1/4 (some of you may remember when this happened).  If you know my car, you also know it had a funky paint treatment on the tail and hood.  The hood is being resprayed straight yellow, and the tail is going to get the standard black treatment.  I was also able to buy the headliner insulation and rear window trim, which will basically complete the car for driving and entering in some shows.   

Depending on the speed of the body shop, I am going to try to enter it into the Early Iron show on Sept. 3.  It will be tight, but I might be able to pull it off.  Keep your fingers crossed :icon_smile_wink:

I found it through Moparts.  When the original site went down, I hoped it was just a temporary thing, but after a few days I knew it was gone.  Just glad to see it back.

Oh, I will get some pics as soon as the car is back from the body shop.  In the meantime, here is an old one for a "before" reference:

 Glad you found the new site. Tory run's it now and just glad he found the old site before Jessie broke up with Rose and sold his Charger.

All is pretty much the same, main topic etc. Big driffress to me is I only have around 80 post and Phyco is around 290 or so. To think we had betten us we where around 20,000 post, my self at a modest 6,000 plus.

Oh well, if posting paid the bill's I have a Hemi Daytona and Neil a Hemi Cuda dropp top. Guess I need to settle for a Blowen 440 in a 69 Charger Rusted / Trash.

   Welcome to your new site.

    Only two Star's Cuda Ken, but posting again! ;D
I am back
