Mopar Muscle Association UK

Just seen this thread and my heart goes out to you Del.
Nothing I can add to comments already made but hang in there it will come right for you,you've got good mates here who will move heaven and earth to help you out so don't give up WE are all behind you

Thanks guys, few pic down at the body shop before me and Anton Stripped it, body work work to start soon, I hope.

Good luck with it Derek, hope you're soon back on the road.

blimey those last pics are a sorry sight , hopefully it'll be tip top again in no time

any news on the knobheads that did this??

Still can't believe someone would do this!

Quick question:
From the last pic (may be my eyes), has something dropped onto the car and dented it, or is it just scorched?

.....and what colour is the car exactly......was it an original Mopar colour (really like it)?


I'm sure you can get the car back looking fantastic again!

Not your eyes, they're not dents, they're scorch marks.
The colour is very close to the original Mopar colour Metalic Bronze, just tweaked a bit.

I know it could be worse but those last pics are heartbreaking!

I am soooooo sorry Derek its heartbreaking when this happens, I can only say if you need help fitting her up afterwards give me a shout, Maybe we should call her christine Caus she keeps coming back from the grave. I wondered why you were not at kk the other week ps get a bull bar on so christine can go out one night and run the watsits down

Flippin eck Derek, only just seen this thread, dont get on as much these days. Absolutely sickening. Good luck with the repairs mate.

I agree on the new name. Maybe Christine can go and hunt down the sods that did this when she's back on the road.

Hi Derek and All,

Can't keep a good MAN/CAR down!!!
Great to see you at Brooky yesterday, still smiling and keen as mustard.

Wish I could say the same for some other Charger folks, saw some long faces at Brooky too, people and their cars eh?

As Forrest Gump said, ''Bananarama! happens'', its how you deal with it that counts!
He also said ''life is like a box of choc's'', that means you never know what cards you are gonna get dealt, and you don't need the best hand to win!!!

If you can bottle some of your enthusiam and give a large dose to Andy then everyone will feel sooo much happier, LOL.

It's been a while since I've updated this, have been waiting for the insurance company to give the go ahead and they finally did a couple of weeks ago.

Paul had took on more work while waiting, he has to pay his bills.

Anyway we went down last week to see how he was getting on, after taking out the rear screen it showed up some rust so that has to be cut out and new metal welded in.

While there I decided to go with a new headliner so had to find someone in Kent that would go to to Paul's and fit it, we now have someone lined up for that, at a good price, the headliner is on it's way from the US

All the new parts are coming from Chris at WASP and should be in the country now.

Will update more when we have been down next week.

A couple of pics for now until we can get down there again when it should have some paint on it.

Garage is coming along now after a couple of cock ups, just got to have the work benches made, new garage doors fitted, floor painted and the electric connected to the mains, hopefully garage will be finished this week

Great stuff Derek keep us posted im sure we are all waiting for her come back

I'm so pleased you can see some progress on the car Derek...so you are wiring the garage up to the mains... that should sort the little sods out, if they decide to come back!
