Charger to Challenger

Post by Gas for GOSH »

When I put my Dodge Charger police car up for sale I was stunned to find I'd had it for 7 years, really did not think it had been that long. Time moves on, none of us are getting younger, so time to enjoy what will most probably be my last Mopar. Had it a month or so now, really enjoying it. 5.7 R/T with the Shaker package so 3.92 rear end and other goodies.

Miles/Mike - if you see the old Charger around it might look a bit different: sold to a Transformers fan in Mount Hawke - he's got the Camaro, now is going to put mine into Barricade mode (even though that was a Mustang i think) so light bar and extra Police lights will be going on it. He'll take the R/T and hockey stripes off - he is trying to get it's original Marin County Police logos made up which will be fair enough. He took it our drag and drift at Perranporth last month.

Anyway enough of the old, on with the new....

Been out twice a week apart from the 2 ice days in Cornwall that shut down the entire county!

Couple of photos for the record...

Modsnstockers kindly did a food drive for our Foodbank on Saturday so I went along. Mostly modded modern German or Japanese but we got a car full of food so that's a proper result. Only thing about holding it at night this time of year at Perranporth airfield is it's pitch black out there! Got a couple of OK photos - been awhile since I've had my camera out.
