Update pics of 72
« on: January 22, 2006 - 04:10:23 PM »
I have a couple more pics of my 72 chally. I also need to replace a section of the firewall i have traced in white. If any one has a donor car that would be willing to cut off and ship to me let me know how much. You can email me at cranker93@yahoo.com. I would greatly appreciate the help as i cant find a parts car any where around me. Any way on with the pics.

thanks tom

That's the same color my '72 was originally.  Are you keeping it the same color?  What are your plans for it?

Steve: I am from NE Iowa. Around the waterloo area.

Hopalong: No I am changing it to Sublime Green. It is going to be a Street/strip. Bigblock, Reverse manual valve body 727, 4.30 sg rear etc...... Just a fun driver.

If anyone is willing to send me this piece I will pay for it. I am at a stand still until I get that piece.

Thanks Tom

Hi Steve,
You might want to give Jeff Bobst in Waverly, IA (319) 352-2511 a call.  He has got 2 or 3 parts cars in his back yard and a couple more out on a farm.  He might cut something off for you.

You may want to try this place. http://www.hallsgarage.com/newint1024.htm It's in R.I.
I know its a little ways away, but I spoke to the guy a few weeks back, and he said he had some Challengers there, though pretty picked apart. Who knows maybe they'll cut one, and send it to ya. It's a least worth a shot.
Good luck  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the help everyone. I really appreciate it..

MoparHunter: I live just south of waterloo in Reinbeck. We will have to hookup sometime and swap stories. I didnt see any pics of your car. Is it finished or just starting?

Hi guys,

I live in Postville - in Northeast Iowa about 75 miles from Waterloo.  It's hard to find parts cars around here because anything not completely rusted out is getting restored.  I have a friend who has a couple of parts cars on his farm - I'll check them out this weekend.  Getting him to sell anything is next to impossible, but I'll give it a try.  He has one 74 318 shell and on 70 cuda that was wrecked many years ago, and a 72 Challenger.  I'll take some pictures when I'm there.

Cudaman:  Thanks for the help. I know where postville is, you are not to far away either. We have our own little e-body group LOL...
I work in the automotive industry and our company has a salesman that goes up there.

thats sweet that there are 3 of us so close. i have been on this site for a long time and the closest to me has been 2 1/2 to 4 hours away. now there are 3 of us within about an hour or so   :woohoo:
well there are or at least were pics of my car on the site a while back but they may have been deleted when the server change happened so i will post some now but dont laugh too hard. its a work just getting started in progress. hey cudaman if your buddy will sell, i have a 70 cuda badly in need of floorpans and if the pans are good in the 70 that he has maybe he would be interested in selling them if they are still good or the whole car for that matter would be fine too. 
heres one pic of my beast, not much to look at but a diamond in the ruff!!
