Well, as some of you saw on the progress thread, I had some pics with all four of the tires on the '68 Hemi of mine. Well, pushed her out in the driveway and the Sun made a world of difference... Sorry for another thread.....
She's a work in progress....

Bet you're tempted too keep it Troy. Better to know what you have, than what you might get.

Why in the world would you part with that for a Daytona. That car is beautiful!!   If I had a Daytona, I would trade you straight across and I think I would have got the better deal.   BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!

This is my favorite of all of your cars  :drool5:  I wish I could get it from you and help you get your Daytona.  I love the unique color and I bet it would look AWESOME with some of those hubcaps and tires like on the Bullitt car :2thumbs:

Beautiful car there.  I like the tires also, nice lettering.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

That is possibly the finest factory/non-factory colour I have ever seen on a Charger. Looks beautiful Troy.  :2thumbs:  :coolgleamA:  :cheers:  :drool5:  :drool5:
