New member, joined at the Euro Nats.
Hi everyone,
Just joined up on Saturday, after being recommended on one of the Facebook Mopar groups. I have recently bought a ‘73 Charger which was imported into the UK from California last September. It had been owned by a Mexican guy who had it sat on his driveway for twenty years. He always planned to restore it, but never got round to it! Prior to my ownership, some restoration work was started and the car was put through an MOT, five days before the exemption came in! Unfortunately she’s not starting at the moment, It’s looking like an electrical fault. Also, I have limited access to her, due to where I’m keeping her at present, so progress is slow. But.. she’ll get there in the end

Nice Charger and sure you will get her sorted, takes time to know your car.
Good luck

Howdy, good choice by the look of it. Like you say, expect a few teething gremlins but persevere
