ouch

$10,975.

A lot of money for just the VIN numbers to be cut out.

That is a lot of money for a non R/T. It is a 71 model. Still a shame though.

Hey Dave, How are you coming on your car? Any new pics to share with us?

Well spotted! I didn't think to look that closely.

Not been able to work on the car since I started back at work part time. I am still recovering from my serious illness (been exactly one year now) and I am still not back full time yet. Nearly there though. At the moment I am working 8:30 to 4pm. I have to get to a 5:15pm finish. Just another 1.25 hours per day to be back to normal.

I was going to do some work over the xmas holidays but I had the flu!

The smallest Challenger known to exist - Even smaller than the notorious 1978 Challenger…...

Wow. What a mess.

What do you suppose happen to it? Accident or malicious mischief.

Dave, Glad to here your getting back to work. How many hours a day do you consider usual?

so somebody is gonna cut the vin and use it again, and rip someone off! great!jackasses!

When full time I am paid for a 37 hour week these days. Five days in a week. Which is 7.4 hours a day.
However.
I have to start at 8:30am and stay until about 5:10pm So they force me to have a "lunch break" of 1.25 hours. So in reality I am there for 8.65 hours a day normally.

At the moment I am up to 7 hours a day but with only a half hour lunch. So I can go home at 4pm. So although I only have 0.4 hours to make up to get full pay again I still have to work another 0.75 hours to be back to my normal work time. About one hour ten minutes in total.

So I am nearly there. Except it is a bit of a struggle to do the 7 hours at the moment. I get very tired and have no energy left for working on the car. If I push myself I get bad headaches and get confused and stressed.

Part of my job is to find/solve/repair equipment and operator errors while under stress. Usually while 150 students are watching everything you do.
If I start getting flustered and confused I am no good to anyone.

You were on the beer admit it!!

Not a total loss though. Looks like the passenger seat is reusable

I saw a 1957 Chrysler 300C that was basically restored around the front windshield/cowl, the car was rusted so bad that virtually every piece of metal had to be worked or replaced, I hope they dont do what Drew describes but wouldnt be surprised if they did. I kinda know what Dave is going through with his job, I used to heat up pennies with my Lighter and roll them down the cellblocks, when the convicts picked up a glowing hot penny (It was VERY stressful...not to laugh hysterically)!

That collapsible steering column is still good too. It didn't due what I though it would. Damn thing just bent sideways.
