    Sorry for not responding earlier guys, however I didn't know this thread even had any replies!

    We moved it out of the garage it has sat in since 1989 about 6 weeks ago.

    I forgot my camera (go figure) but I was able to borrow my cousins. He didn't really know how to use it so I grabbed it and started shooting. I took  :picture: from all sides of the car, engine bay and such. He was suppose to e-mail them to me right away and I never got them! Now he isn't computer savvy so I gave him instructions to not selete the photos. To make a folder on his computer and keep all the photos in that folder until he knows for sure that I have them. I'll have to call him tomorrow to see if he has those photos still. I sure hope he does. The car went into a storage unit for the winter and we are suppose to construct a building next spring so we can get this car (and our others) inside for once!

    We have kept most of the mopars we've owned, including 90% of the ones we parted are still laying around.

    I updated my account settings so I will know when I get replies from now on.


    Right now the plan is to take the car out of storage in the next couple weeks and start getting it back to Green Go and back together.
