I and a freind traveled from Northwestern Ohio to northeast of Pittsburg, PA yesterday in one heck of a nerve racking snow storm. At the time we were actually going to look at a 67 Dart GTS conv. with a Hemi shoved in the engine compartment. After looking at a hopeless basket case the seller takes us to a friends house who has a few X-brand vehicles for sale. We look these over and came to the conclusion that this may have been a wasted trip. That's when this guys friend came home early from work and we talked and look all the cars over one more time. That's when, you've got to love those Chevy/ Ford lovers, this guy says "I take it you like those Dodges....I have one sitting in the corner of my shop" . And off we go to this guys shop! In the corner, covered with parts, sat a 71 Challenger. Ralleye red/ primer in very good condition. After some negotiations and a few nerviously smoked cigs, the deal was made. we loaded the Challenger up and headed for home, fish tailing and sliding all the way( about 7 1/2 Hrs)!!! I'll post some pic's later today. I just love Challengers!!!
