Challenger in the grass (no longer)
« on: January 28, 2012 - 07:09:49 AM »
My wife and I ran around a little yesterday to find a body shop to fix up her Honda after it got slapped. We went to 3 shops, and then I mentioned a guy that I met when Chryco and his wife came to visit a few months back. He's going to be doing  the work starting on Monday morning since I've seen his work and was quite happy with it.
Neils already seen this car, but I thought I'd post a couple of pics anyway

Is this a car set a side to be restored or just set a side?

It looks pretty complete from the pictures.

The Hemi was been in the shop for about 2 years now. It's supposed to be getting put together someday, but right now it's just sitting.

LOL, yeah, I have a nice patch of grass it could set in at my house. 

But seriously, it does look like a nice project.

When Chryco gets online he might be able to remember a few things about the car.
The Shaker bubble is in the front seat, it's an RT/SE and it's got 71 front fenders on it. That's all I remember about it right now.

My wife talked to the guy doing the bodywork on the Honda last night when we dropped the car off. He's going to ask the owner again if he's willing to sell it, and to get a price if he is. I don't really have the room, or the Hemi for the car, but I can always hold it for Chryco until he's ready for it.

That's sad and awesome.  Has 71 stripes on it.  Hope someone atleast brings it in our of the grass.  Does nothing but promote rust!

Reminds me of this one.
