73 challenger 340 4 speed rallye
« on: September 01, 2009 - 06:20:46 PM »
Some of you may remember this challenger I found behind a barn about a year ago. Well before I got the car it sat 5 years behind a barn. So today I decided to hot wire the car and see if I could get the old 383 that they installed years ago to run.  Well beleave it or not it started up and didnt even smoke so I was so happy I had to make a vidoe.  It was only running on 6 of the 8 plugs so tomorrow its a trip to the parts store to get this old thing up and running good. Hope you guys injoy the videos.

 :woohoo:  It runs!! 

Hindsight being what it is, I wish I'd tried that with mine 16 years ago when I bought it.  Live and learn.  :sadwavey:
