Busy with mail box project!
« on: December 17, 2006 - 11:56:31 PM »
Here is a picture of my mail box I just painted. It is painted Hemi Orange or Tora-Red to match my Cuda and I put a black Challenger bumble bee stripe for my Challenger so it would not be left out. My wife thinks it was a waste of my talent but I have been bored with no cruise nights or car shows now that winter is just around the corner and thought I would paint a mail box up for somthing to do. I have very little going on with my Cuda or Challenger this winter as the Cuda has only been on the road since last spring and my wife wants me to leave the Challenger the way it is so she can drive it for the next couple years. Then I plan on some new paint and stripes as it was restored in 1992 and has a few paint chips and other road scares from being driven as I have drove it to the Mopar Nationals every year since it was restored and drive it everywhere it goes. No trailer queen here.

Maybe no snow on the ground but here in southern IL. not much goes on after Oct. unless you do it yourself and call some people to do it with you. I took my Challenger out Sunday for a ride as the temperature got up to around 72 and soon we will have lots of very cold days.
