I drove my Chall for the first time in 5 years , just happened to stop by the local dealer & they just happened to be having a Grand re-opening after selling the dealership to a new owner so we took a couple of pix

I dunno why 5 years , too broke most of the time to drive it + I am too busy in good weather to drive it , had to move it today & it was a warm day after having a dump of snow less than a week ago
 the car is an original R/T SE Painted FC7 with a Bee stripe , black roof & leather interior from the factory , I have been promising to resto this car back to factory colors for 30 years , it will get done

Me too!   :o  First time seeing your car!  Very cool!  :thumbsup:

You spend so much time helping out others that you'll never have time to work on your own car!  :grinyes:

Very cool, Neil! :cheers:  It's weird, but I am positive I have never seen your Challenger until now.  I remember the sick 'Cuda you built & had for your signature photo, but I've never seen this one before.  Very nice car, Neil. :thumbsup:

Not only is this the first time I've seen it, I didn't even know you had one that was ready to roll.

I think it's awesome.

Neil, Very cool pic. I've been around here for awhile and never saw pics of your Chally. Thanks for sharing them.  :2thumbs: I know what you mean about not having time to drive it. The 1st 2 years I owned mine, my friend I rent my garage from drove it more then me . I was working weekends at time and didn't have time to drive it. But I'm making up for it now.  :burnout: :burnout:

Hey Neil,

It looks like you suffer from the 'shoe maker who's kids don't have any shoes" syndrome. It is great to see your's out and about. :2thumbs:

What the hell, take the black one home, too! :grinyes:

Good to see your wheels Neil. You really need to have some time for yourself mate and get YOUR car done for once. I prefer the rear ends to be higher than the front, makes them look less "whale" with nice rake, lighter and beefier. But, like Ken, that's just me.
