New Guy From Kansas, I may be in OZ here.....
« on: January 04, 2009 - 03:33:45 AM »
Franklin County Kansas here and I have a 1970 Challenger SE Matching #'s 383\290 HD727 with Factory A\C, PS,PB,Power windows,Cruise Control ,6-way seat with Houndstooth and rear defrost. It's a rusty car but never hit with fender tag and buildsheet. Frame rails are good but needs lots of sheetmetal except doors and roof. I am Looking for a set of rallye gauges and a console plus 15" rallyes and more stuff like SE emblems for the roof. I am sure I have the stomach for it but maybe not the wallet. My wife is patient but we are on a major tight budget and my baby seems like a pipe dream. I will be looking to trade any kind of IT work and computer rebuilds for parts!   Nice to be here!
