Hey guys-  Its been a looooong time since I've been around on the board here.  I was a part of the old board and one of the first members of the newer board, but had to take a Charger break for a while.  I've had two 68's for a few years now, but due to being a married full time college student with a mortgage, I wasn't able to do much with either of them.  Just when I thought I was going to be able to sink some cash into them, I started my Master's program so that sucked up what little money I had for a couple years.  WELL, I finish up the Master's in about 2 months and I can't wait!  The first 68' is my numbers matching 4-speed R/T.  Its a Mr. Norm's car and I've got the original title signed by him.  Its a non-vinyl top PP1 red car with white stripes, black interior and console 4-speed.  Second is a non-vinyl top GG1 383 4-speed with no drive train.  I've pretty much come to terms with the fact that I'm going to end up selling off the GG1 roller to finance the Mr. Norms car.  I've paid for most of my education by building custom bikes.  Mostly older British stuff like Triumphs etc.  I'm currently working on a 37' Harley ULH, but who knows, that might go to pay for the R/T as well.  Shouldn't take much, the only thing needing replaced is the trunk.  Even the quarters are very clean and don't even need patching.  For those of you who know PocketThunder, I'm the guy that rode with him in his beautiful slant 6 69' 500 out to the aero car show out at the Milwaukee Mile race track this last summer (AWESOME TRIP!).  Now that I'll hopefully have a little more cash and a lot more time I'll definitely be around quite a bit!    :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_big:

Welcome back. :wave:

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. :)
