just a little rough, and moldy. But that's all fixable, easily, and bingo, a decent Challenger without car payments, with parts interchangeable with most 67-74 Mopars. Factory 3 spd stick, with rear defroster, and a 318


one owner car, left at his cousins when he moved to work out of state, and then he died. The car sat in the same spot for 35 years after that, started once a year or so, until the gas tank leaked out.



jump to about 8:30 when you want to see him start digging into it under the hood

And this is part one, happily, of a series of videos, so, since this was recorded last Sept, you can watch the others to see this get worked on and fixed up! I like that. Sure, it's more rewarding to be in the garage working on your own, but damn... it's so much like FREE to watch someone else work on theirs! Man, I tell you, I'd rather bring the tools, beer and pizza and help work on someone elses, and have them pay for parts, than see just how freaking expensive it will get working on mine.

I've never had the happy moment of finding a build sheet... on my first 3 Mopars, I didn't even know about these, and no one cared. Yeah, that was a long time ago, and I'm getting old.



and check out the never been used spare tire!
