Steve and I told you all about the "rising " a while ago.
But no one listened !

Other than surface rust on the roof and a few other panels that could pass as 'patina' in most peoples books, she is a rock solid California car Dave. Runs lovely as well

Yeah Dunc..definately older paint. Originally a red Newport donor car. Im not sure how long it has been in Hurst colours but I know Kev has been sourcing parts etc and his friend in the States has been a gent and fitted a lot of them prior to shipping.

Not sure Will...Im guessing its some sort of filter/ air bleed thingy but will ask Kev when I speak to him later

Great stuff Steve, I hope Kev recovers soon but well done him.

Glad to see more C bodies coming they have been overshadowed too long in the Mopar camp. Good to see more 4 doors too.

Yeah Tim...he was suffering yesterday and didnt even have the energy to open all the goodie boxes that came with her! Now thats bad for Kev!

Think C bods are popular now as its an affordable way to get driving a Mopar. Think very few of us can afford a 20 or 30k Charger etc....and I prefer C bods anyway

The four door hangups seem to be quite confined to our club for some reason. Most other marques arent fussy....just look at the AACUK events etc, loads of 4 dr Caddies, Fords, Chevys etc...great cars and keeping the scene going by making cars affordable for the masses.
