Cool. Very nice ride you have there. I love that small window, how is it to drive with? I dont care if is has blind spots, I love the SE backlight enough to overlook the blind spots. I love the interior also, nicely done  :2thumbs:

Thanks! I dont mind the "blindspot" issue. It does decrease visibility but I'm used to it. And I love the looks as well.

Very nice pics!  :2thumbs:

Snap!!! I did not even see the power window switch! That is a highly loaded base Challenger and I bet it is rare as hell! One of a kind there dude.

I Know!! thanks guys, its def been a labor of love for the past 5 or 6 years. I paid $2500 at the time, but it needed everything... needless to say i sold my unfinished '74 to land this. I'm not rich at all, I had just been layed off with severance pay from a Warner Bros. dist. warehouse. What else is a 20yr old gonna do with $7000, Buy the dream car!

Yep, this thing has crazy options, to this day I'm still doing stuff to it. I didnt care for the body side molding option so i did away with that.  :misbehaving:

So, funny story on this car.... My uncle knew the previous owner in the early 80's and they had cruised the streets along side of it. some bad blood went down and an "accident" happened in a bar parking lot  :burnout: - IE a huge chrysler slammed into the driver side at about 30mph. I bet he never dreamed he'd be helping ME pull those dents out. funny. SO, the car was thought to be dead, and it turns up for $2500.  :woo: And here she is!!!!! 

At this point, Im in no concourse condition but anyone who truly appreciates an Ebody loves seeing that option list, big block or no big block. im definitely happy. I definitely turn around and look at it at least once after i park.  :lol2:  :screwy:

You're not the only one.   :misbehaving:

I have an original BB car, but mine has hardly any options.  3 speed wiper, woop-de-doo.   :crazy: :crazy:

 :2thumbs: and I love the Orange, thats what i was paiting the '74 at the time. If all works out, I should be aquiring an original Hemi Orange '72 340/4spd Road Runner. The '69 Dart is getting an Orange swinger stripe and possibly orange A100 seats ...... boy its gonna take a little while to smooth out this "collection",
"n***as is broke these days!" - movie quote "Friday"  :lol:

Oh, and by the way, when that Warner Bros. warehouse closed, there were decorative 4' tall Road runners and coyotes. I TRIED ..... but couldnt legally save them and cameras were everywhere ..... though I was able to pocket small items like a Gossamar paper weight.  :misbehaving:

Oh, and I'll be posting pics of my dads '74 Barracuda redo soon .............
