Man, that car looks great! :drool5:
Who took the pics then, the truck driver?

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. :)

Nope I asked the seller to take some pics. He drove the truck with both cars from Scottsdale, AZ to Long Beach, CA.
I bought this Charger on 15th of May and hope to pick 'er up somewhere in August.
Hopefully before our anual 'American Power on Wheels' held in my town. Car show with 2000+ American cars!

Hey, right-on.  ;)  I graduated in '83 myself although the Mopar bug hadn't hit me yet.  But my '77 Trans Am had seats that laid back.  :icon_smile_tongue:

Congrats CB.  Again nice ride.  I think you've done more waiting for rides this year than any driving. :shruggy:

  Cool dude, it's too bad you can't rent a C5-A Galaxy to fly the Charger over there. Of course you'd also have to rent the KC-10 that gases up the Galaxy ever couple of hours, & a million $$$ worth of jet fuel. Maybe the wait untill August will just have to do. :D

Dude, I wish I had the money... I also had to ship it to our neighbors country to get a better (European) tax bill. Luckily it is 40 miles from my town.

   40 miles away ain't bad. Saving money sounds even better.

***update on shipping***

after some nail biting it is finally getting closer.

The vessel sailed on 07/16 and the company is expecting it around 07/31.
So within a week or 2, I will be a Charger owner/driver again :icon_smile_big:

I'll keep you posted (and post pics)
