Hi Everyone!  I purchased my '70 Challenger R/T in 1999.  I really stole it but the guy set his price all I did was ask how he wanted his money.  It's a 440 with a 727 trans and 3:23 gears.  Three years ago I freshened everything up in the engine with a little bigger cam, rebuilt the front suspension and had the tranny rebuilt.  I enjoy cruisin' and going to car shows.  Thanks, Herb
