    now the big question are you going to be able to buy it back!!!!!! :clapping:

    Yes....and will it be something I can afford?
    It's pretty well disassembled right now, and some of the bodywork done. But it needs a whole lot more by the looks of it.
    At least there's some good panels avaliable at AMD now. I'll probably have to redo most of what's been done.

    And what it looked like, not long after I got it.
    (Before I did the bodywork and painted it FC7).

    This is one of the cooliest threads I have seen on here in a long time!  VERY cool.  Are you restoring it back to stock looks?  It looks like it will be a nice car.  Congrats on finding your car, you must feel so furfilled.

    I have a feeling that you'll have to find another Challenger for this guy, before he gives up your old one.  Now that you found it, do you still have the same feelings for it?  You restored it once before, do you want to do the same car again?

    With all of the press around finding this car, do you now feel that you have to buy it, since everyone is waiting to hear the outcome of the story?

    You know, Rob has a good idea.  What if you could find a Challenger to his liking and trade it for your old one?  :clueless:

    Maybe it'll work the other way around too, that guy may feel obligated to sell it back to you because of the press and all.  :grinyes:
