    Restored and Thanks
    « on: June 08, 2015 - 03:18:19 PM »
    This is a note of thanks to this site and all those of you who have helped me from the start 18 months ago.  This was my fathers 1972 Rallye Challenger that he bought in 1975.  I got my first speeding ticket in this car in 1978.  My dad passed 5 years ago and I told my mom we cannot let this car just sit there outside and lose it.  So my mom gave me this car and my brother got the secret weapon in the garage (my dad's race car).  We were a Mopar family.
    Not to bore you with anymore details but I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks.

    I have attached some pics.
