    I spent my "free time" helping my dad finish his. I'm working on my '68 Road Runner now and as far as I got is cleaning up various parts. I spend A LOT of time cleaning, blasting, and trying to make it look like it "would" have.

    Hey the right side is still pointed down.

    Don't know what it is about that color but I love it.

    Over the winter we slid my dad's Charger out of the corner it's been sitting in for the last 10 years. We got it running just to see if it would. No noises, runs smooth, etc. I don't understand why people park some cars. Been off the road since '91 according to the tag. 400 big block, sure grip rear, the bulge hood is off a different car but it was on it when he bought it. I think we're putting it back like that but get rid of those wheels and put the originals back on. We both hate those style wheels.
