    It thought it looked like it might have been in a fire.   :fire:

    It really looks like a great project after and I bet when you get it back from the media blaster you are going to be amazed.  :thumbs:

    Looks like you've got a (another) great Challenger project! Good luck with it!


    TFN- Speaking of Chally verts, what happened to that second JS29U you were going to look at?

    ... So that's what you are driving to Carlisle this year???  :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

    Just messing with you Nick. This car could be something. What engine does it have? A 71 Big-block is rare.

    So Nick, where does the rebuilt motor and tranny fit in?  Was it rebuilt before the fire?  Does that still count?

    I see... well, you should ask this guy about it again. Can't let 74chall get all the good project cars, right? Besides, if you wanted to pass on it, I'd be interested... ;D

    Project cars are out there. you have to just look for them and be willing to pay.
    Got a lot of work done today. No fooling around with this car. Got the interior and crap out , Broke down most all rust on the out side, another day with a DA and 80 grit on it ,then some ospho to treat the metal and 80 grit again . Then epoxy. I booted my 68 road runner out so the vert is protected. This vert is so clean i cannot believe it. its all orgional except for lower quater skins. No rot whatsoever.   :eekbig:
