Hello, sorry I just noticed the message now. Happy New Year  :cheers:
  Well I was going to head down to Hallsgarage.com as I said on Saturday. Unfortunately they closed at noon time, so I did not have enough time  :pullinghair: I think he said when I called that they were closed today, so I am going to have to wait till Sat. again  :banghead:
 Today I am heading out to Northbridge, Ma to see if I can find the guy that I purchased my car off of. Serious Mopar nut. We were always out at his house trading parts with him. He always had at least a half a dozen Mopars in his yard that were for sale at all times. Unfortunately just lost contact with him throughout the years. It's been about 12 years, so I'm am hoping I can at least find the house again. I keep ya informed.
 Good luck on your end too :thumbsup:

I know there is a challenger for me out there.Im gonna head out to try and find it.and I will trade my 69 cuda off or sell it if need be.it just is getting very hard to find a decent car out there that someone doesnt want hemi prices on. Every person that i have talked to is after a profit a huge profit.I am not a buyer seller just a mopar nut that loves cars.and i just want to enjoy my cars.so if any one knows of a challenger that could use a new home please let me know. many have suggested e-bay just cant do that saw a friend yesterday who just got burned real bad and I dont have money to just throw away sorry that there are scammers and jerks doing this. By the way has anyone had any dealings with wildcat auto. would it be woth seeing about them selling me a car out of there yard and what are the prices like?

Thats funny, I was going to make mention of Wildcat auto. My nephew and I were looking on this site for hours over the weekend. Did not recall seeing any Challenger project cars though I may have missed them. It would be worth calling up, and seeing what they charge to ship a project car to the New England area just for curiosity sake.

I've also been trying to get a hold of a couple of auto recycling yards in Oakham, and in Palmer. Way back some time ago we went to the Oakham yard, and got a flat hood off a 69 Coronet to make the dual scoop ramcharger hood that is on my fathers 69 R/T car now, and while we were there I came across an original 1970 Panther Pink Challenger, unfortunately too far gone :crying:, But I do recall having seen quite a few mopars. I am going to check into whether or not they may have some projects just sitting there waiting to be had. :dunno:

torred, I've seen that post, but I haven't been able to find any info on that place, as to where its exact location is. Do you have any info on this place.  I"ve come up empty everytime I've tried to get exact directions. Is it in Rochester NH, or MA?

Thanks a bunch torred. That was it. I just called, and got off the phone with them. He said he does have some E bodies, but unfortunately they are all picked apart, and all the bodies are bought up already. When I asked if any were even remotely salvagable, I got a no, what a pissa  :walkaway:   Sounded like a nice guy though. I may head down there anyways, once this F :swear: N snow goes away. Ya never know what you might find  :dunno:
 Thanks again man :thumbsup:

Sorry to hear M Clown, that sucks out loud for sure.  I can imagine your frustration :swear:  :pullinghair: :stomp: :banghead:
Keep your perseverance up. It's only a matter of time.
 I was able to locate the number for the mopar nut in Northbridge that I mentioned, who always had mopars for sale. I left a meesage with his girlfriend to get back to me. Hopefully something.
 Did you happen to come across this place yet. Has quite a few e bodies in South Carolina. Prices seem a bit high, but I dont know how much they'll bend  :dunno:
