Wow, Coast to Coast!  Thumbs Up   :nzflag:  Aren't roadtrip reports the best thing you can read on any car webboard? I sure think so.    :jumping:

 :iagree: NZ that stance is right on :ylsuper: Very similar to Rev-It-Up's  :thumbsup: Any one of those shots should be made into the first poster of Lucy :grinyes: :grinyes:  :picture: :picture:

 :iagree:  with all the previous :ylsuper:

I'd add  that I especially like the big meats stuffed in the rear wheel wells (must look great from the rear) and her "before" pics looked good too !
Most people are not aware of New Zealands scenery. For such a small area it has a liitle of everything when it comes to scenery.
Beautiful place !

Good to see your back, NZ.  That must've been a thrill to be able to go on a nice cruise like that with Lucy!  Must've been awesome.  Glad you and Lucy made it back safely. 

Beatiful pictures too!  Definately have to submit that 1st pic to every Mopar mag.  Can't keep Lucy's beauty just to yourself!!!!  I'm happy for ya!

It's rare to find such a great car restored to Lucy's condition but how many Challengers (roughly) are there in NZ that you've seen?  Must be rare to see a Challenger to begin with.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Pic #2 and 3 of my ARII 1/24 scale model car 

Phil in New England-Massachusetts  Always thank God for what you have!

For the double Trifecta, he needs to get himself a 68 ragtop. :biggrin:

See, I got the 67.  And the Notchback.

You got the 69, and the Fastback.

We just need a regular poster to get a 68 Ragtop. :naughty:

WHOA! Thanks for the replies everyone. Wasn't expecting this many replies for only a few photos.  :eek7: :clapping:

Cuda - Roughly 1,200 miles were driven on this trip.  :thumbsup:

Superblue72 - There are about 15-20 Challenger's in New Zealand, most in "so/so" condition and many clones.

Ghost & Oldschool - LOL!!  :lol2: I'm not a rag top fan but do love my A-Body Cudas so they are definitely on the search list.  :grinyes:



Thanks once again to everyone else for the comments about my car and New Zealand, y'all are too much.  :worshippy



Cheers,

WOW! What a beautiful car! Lucy was well worth the wait, both for you, and for all of us board members to see! Congratulations, and the pictures came out great!

BTW- I remember when you thought WSM was part of the KKK... but I always thought that you had just been pulling his leg, and joking around. :dunno:

Any one of those shots should be made into the first poster ofLucy :grinyes: :grinyes: :picture: :picture:

As for posters... i'll take one of "D-Road6"!

When I first got here I asked Whitesatinmopar (Jim) if he was in the "KKK" because of the "White Satin" part.
I only asked because I thought they were White Satin Sheets.  :lol2: :lol: :walkaway:

All was sorted.  :biggrin: :lol2:


Thanks MoPar Matt, I can email you the big 2000 x 2000 mega pixel shot if you like.  :thumbsup:

If I remember correctly, it looked at quick glance to say "WhiteSatanMopar"... and so the inevitable questions followed. :lol:

Thanks for the offer of the pic, NZ. Just give me a few days, though, I need to get my DSL line up and running (that way it doesn't take an obscene amount of time to download).

I thought about him, but he's not what I'd call an active poster.  Shame.... :walkaway:
