Hello I got out of work early to pick IT up at the alignment shop.  Feels good.  Only got it up to 60mph but felt alright at cruising speed (wasn't highway)!  Man the exhaust is loud with no interior!  Heres a pic from today.


Thanks again I'll try to stay up to date during the week but its tough as you all know!!!

Sweet!  Are you going to keep the paint that way?  Just in time for July 4th! 

When was it painted that way?  Looks wicked cool!
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.

It was painted by the former owner after SEPT 11...
He took off the dual quad setup before I got it  Only a 318  maybe a 360 this summer?  Mopar 360sb 10:1 eddy heads intake carb  sounds better to me!

I bought the car on the Nshore he had it for a few years  I bought it last fall/summer.  Had to sell my coronet conv to get some money for this one.  Good price but had a title prob but I straightened it out w/registry  They hit me for a 6500 valuation!  Then I get excise tax on 350?  go figure they got my money!  Car is pretty solid has original floors w/minor pin holes in front pas floorpan.  Good foundation for a street machine not a show car  I plan to keep it for a while as I missed my Gran Cuda after I sold it 10yrs ago for 1500!  Burnt/Burnt mint orig int and good body!  I couldn't afford the ins when in college!  This is as close as I'm gonna get for the time being unless I get really lucky..

Do you guys out west get over to the N Shore at all?  there are some big shows every week at the NShore mall on wed  200-300 cars in good weather  what they got out there as i'm in the middle.

Welcome to the site, 72challengerorange!!! :wave:  Your Challenger looks pretty cool done up in the American Flag scheme, but I bet a more subtle paint job would be more suitable. :wavingflag:  BTW: what color orange are you planning on painting your car? (going off your screen name) :cheers:
