Charger owner... finally!

Post by Gringo »

Struck a deal today with Tony O for his red '68 Charger. Absolutely over the moon. Well chuffed. It's been a long time coming. Gonna hopefully run it on the road for a bit, and start collecting the bits for a full resto. It's all there, but the panel work and interior need a lot of TLC. It's exactly what I've always dreamed of, but now the hard work starts. If anyone has any bits of trim, or any bits that might be useful for the future, give me a shout. The plan is to eventually dump the 383 for a mildly tuned 440, go discs front and rear, and modernise the interior a touch, but leaving an original feel to it. Anybody local who can help out with advice, it's all gratefully received. :D :D :D
