Certainly possible. I'd like to make it clear that there is no historic value to this car and the DMV title shows mileage as zero due to salvage title so originality of gauges probably doesn't impact the value either way.

I am not representing this car as anything but a driver and solid starting point for a fun street machine. I bought this last year thinking I would have time for this project, however life has decided otherwise.

I would give some preference to a C-C.com member vs. random Craigslist caller if any of you are interested.

Thanks.

Thanks, Brad.I appreciate your comment and good wishes.

I was fortunate enough to have had a 440 Challenger in my early 20s (a couple of decades ago now!) and thought I might recreate some mighty Mopar magic with this Pink Panther but it will have to wait.  :cheers:
