That is a beautiful car Eddie. I saw it at the Nationals in Columbus. Thanks for sharing the link.

Hello Eddie! :D
Yes, that is a very niiiiiiccccceeee Challenger! Just read about it, today. That Kool Kuda, on page 12, is pretty awesome too! Dave Walden was very meticulous, putting that Chally together. Right down to finding the original engine in Alabama. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

His Black 70 Hemi Cuda was done in much the same way. He also won the Nats in 2006? with it I think.(Where the heck you been big Pat?) :lol:

Hey Eddie!
I've been around. Just haven't posted much. My wife and I have been checking other site's, trying to get some insight on scholarship's, student loan's and Grant's. Both our girl's are getting ready to graduate High School, and go to College. I'm not completely sure were they're going yet but, I want to be ready, when they decide. They're both going to start with Community College, before going to a big school. Thank God for that! :D We can't afford to pay, $10,000-$20,000 a year, per kid. :shock: Being "Middle Class" Suck's. For education, we either make too much, or not even close to enough. :disbelief:
Talk to you soon, Pat

What are they looking to pursue? Big name Colleges are mostly big business! Thats it. My Degree only 'gave' me the credentials, little real world experience. For an Accountant, Lawyer, Doctor, sure the big schools are necessary. But for 'bang for the buck' State run Technical Colleges are way better, cheaper costs for the students/parents, my tuition is 1/2 of what a major university would cost. Plus where they 'rape' you is on living expenses for out of state college students who get charged an additional 50% or more for being from another state! It's a rackett! The university teaches how much money you can screw the public out of legally. Our bankers and politicians have obviously graduated from the biggest racketts out there!! :lol:

Congrat's on the McDonald's Gig! :thumbsup: I'd like to get a picture of my Challenger, on one of those cups. What doe's a global caster do? My wife brought one of those cups home, a couple month's ago. I said,"Nice car!" She said "What?" She didn't even notice the picture on the cup. She said,"Wow! You have a good eye for those Challenger's, even when it's a picture on a Mickey Dee's cup!"

Thanks for the link. I love to see cars restored as close to original as posible. However a few hidden performance parts never hurts.
