Hello Lads, new here. Great looking site, good to see a Challenger board.
I live in Wellinton, New Zealand.

I drive:

1970 Dodge Challenger R/T
440HP Magnum 4bbl 375hp
Heavy Duty Torqueflite 727
8-3/4 Sure Grip housing 3:55's

Major options include Power windows/brakes, A/C-heater, Vinyl Roof, Light Package and Rallye cluster.

It's a #'s matching Mopar that came into NZ in 1971!! Checked out the history and even talked to the original owner who knew most of the options lol!!

Whats up with this guy -----> :shock:

LMAO!!! Is he constipated? LOL!! :shock:

Nice one.

I have copied and pasted all your car spec in here. That "General Chat" bit gets weeded now and again so most likely your intro will get deleted eventually.

Thanks chief

It's one of the only decent photos I have before it was striped, it's currently under full resto. It's striped and ready for a professional paint, goes over (1 hour drive) to my painter late Feb early March Yehaaaaaa

Nice site by the way mate :mrgreen:

Like the profile pic. The current lead singer used to live a couple of streets away from my house.

Sheesh I missed your reply sorry mate........... :oops:

My bad.

Really, Keul!! Did you ever see Angus? Or did they play any riffs in the garage?

Love em to bits, REAL Rock!! Not like this so called "Pop" Rock, those two words don't belong in the same sentence even the same page!

Linken park are the biggest bunch of sissys out, can't stand them and the newer, so called "Rock" :evil:

All they do is cry an whine to sell music, depressing the younger generatioin is an easy way to get money, it's like shooting fish in a barrel! :roll:

I used to bump into Brian Johnson now and again in the early to mid 1980s. Went in his house once when he invited me and a mate in one night. He had a pool table and he always played for money. Took all of ours off us! I think his ex-wife still lives there? Not sure. I think his daughter was still at the local school when i first moved in this house ten years ago?

I only saw them live once. In the days of Bon Scott (the better days!) when they were recording the first live album "if you want blood". I was right under Angus and got covered in his sweat as he banged his head up and down.

Ah happy days.

I'll say that sounds like true bliss!

He's a bloody legend.
I agree the Bon scott days were the best, Long way to the top, RIP, Jailbreak ahhhhh gota love'em!
Although Brian is doing a great job Thunder struck comes to mind, Safe in New York City, Hard as a rock, Whole lotta Rossie all good.

LONG LIVE ROCK N ROLL!!!!!!!
