    Hi Everyone. Newbie from Omaha. I have owned plenty of Mopars for the last 25 years or so. Got rid of 74 RoadRunner and 71 Challenger back in 93 to buy my dream car, 70 R/T Challenger convertible 440 4-speed non a/c dana car. Was in pretty good condition when I bought it, sat in storage for the last 14 years, just started to refresh it and put it back on the road. Had it at my best friends 26,000 square foot shop to do some work to it, and on Dec 30, 2007, the place burnt to the ground, my car as well. So got my insurance check and replaced with numbers matching 70 R/T Challenger convertible, plum crazy 383 auto. I can't wait for spring and using this site.

    Welcome to the site! Too bad about your challenger....however, I'd watch any car I have ever owned burn to the ground if I ended up with a car like you have now!!   :drool:

    Welcome to the site and sorry to hear about your Challenger burning up. Glad your insurance paid off and you have found another Challenger to replace it. I grew up in Genoa, Nebraska but now live in southern IL. Stick around and enjoy all this site has to offer.

    I know, should post pictures. What is the best way? I have heard photobucket, thought I could just drag them into this post, but that does not work.
