Not yet. But wheels are in motion so to speak. I still need to fix the car first. But other than that, and some money changing hands, it is sold.

I want to make sure the car is problem free before the new owner collects it. So I have a little work to do to replace the heads.

It will be a sad day when I see it drive away. :(

Hi Dave, i cannot really believe what i am reading, have you sold your Challenger aswell? Do you feel like it was your last mopar, or do you think you have the strength to restore one more sometime (or pherhaps buy one other)?

I think I have one more car left in me. It will not be as clean or as fast. But it will be a Mopar. It might even be a Challenger but we will have to see.

I did fancy a bike for running to work on but my wife, friends and family all strongly objected. They have had enough worry over me these last few years without them having more to worry about! :D

Kim calls them "Donor-Cycles". I played that game of getting another one with her. Got my Challenger instead. :s002: Reverse psychology! :s003: :lol: I do kind of miss, having one though. :roll:
