    More pics of progress 5-24-05 :)

    Also, unfortunately, it looks like due to financial circumstances beyond my control (I am self employed and have lost a few key customers due to consolidation, relocation and reorganization) I am going to have to sell this car upon completion.  I you know of anyone looking for a nice ragtop Challenger, pass my info on :(

     I really don't want to go the ebay routed but that's probably the way I'll have to go to sell her given that that seems to be the place that gets the best results...

    I wish it wasn't so, believe me.  I've lost a lot of sleep over this one.  I've owned over 20 Challengers and Cudas this was THE ONE!  Oh well, I guess there will be others...  I got my first Challenger before I even had my license and have never been without one for more than six months over the last 20 years!  But given the amount of money I have tied up in her, it does not make sense to allow my financial situation to worsen when I've got an assett as valuable and liquid as this...  :dontknow:  I am open to partial trades for a lesser valuable Ebody and would even entertain another project.

    Well, fired it up last night at around 11pm.  Those TTI's & exhaust sound awesome :beer: :beer:

    I've got a couple of bugs to work out - defective alternator not charging :spank: :spank:  Power steering pump forces it to hard left :???:  Rockers need adjusting.  BUT she fired right up with the key and everything :thumbs:
