Put a Challenger emblem on it..... :poopoke: Just make a nice driver. It is at the point where making money is tough, not losing money is more realistic. I put 50 into my cr to make it stock, maybe get 23 for it now.

So much for my plan to quit my day job.  I saw all those hemi and 6 pack clones on eBay with $85k bids not hitting reserve price.  Then I thumbed through Classic Industries and Year One catalogs and saw the $500 taillight covers, $400 batteries, and so on..........now I know I can turn $125000 into $75000 quicker than congress.

I have been watching a "numbers matching" U code cloned into a six pack on eBay off and on for weeks.  Buy it now has gradually dropped to $100k..........for a $45k car with maybe $5k of mods.

I especially like all the n codes being sold as  440 six packs......with cleverly worded ads.
