Take them for a drive. Tons of idiots out there and sometimes they don't look or act like idiots at first.

As above, fish it with coat hangar, then when it's near the hole a set of needle nose pliers to pull it out.

Consumers are the problem, take away the market and the junk will disappear. Why anyone needs Chinese are Taiwan parts on their American muscle is beyond me. On my last two Challengers I threw more repro junk in the garbage can than I care to remember. I just want refurbished original parts on...

Nice! Rust free, mostly dent free, rallye gauges, console and a big block. Great start!

They were built in different size from a small one for a single patrolman to operate up to larger ones that would transport a small crew. We had a club rent time on our railway once and they probably had 30 or 40 speeders. It cost lots as they had to pay for a "pilot" who was one of our guys...

We spend a few months there every year but yes, they are pricing themselves out of the tourist market. If meals and lodging are going to cost as much as say Australia, well then I'll spend a few bucks extra on airfare and go to Australia. Mexican service used to be great, not any more. I also...

The red car looks right and when it squats a bit the wheel moves back a touch which centers it in the wheel well and the tire won't get into the wheel lip at the back.

I think it looks a bit strange as well. If the springs flatten out some when you throw some weight in it the axle will shift back a bit more as well. So you'll have to watch clearance to the fenderlip.

That 70 R/T is more my style. It looks like it just came off a 140MPH highway run.

That pulley looks huge too. Hopefully the pulley will be okay when using the car bracket setup. Not sure the car brackets will work with that pump either. Too bad there aren't junkyards with these old cars in them anymore.

Meh: Have to paint the hood and the rest of the paint isn't finished. Needs wheels, tires, bigger engine. Too high I think. Take a magnet with you if you go to look at it.

Awesome car. I had one the same colours etc. in 1977.

I've never abandoned a project car and I always give myself one year max to complete them. Nothing pains me more than seeing a Mopar get ripped apart and then sit for 10 or 20 years while parts get lost and damaged. My last 2 Challengers came to me as incomplete projects, one by the original...

The grille isn't that bad. If I had one I would try blacking it all out though, I have never seen that done. The 2-3-4 cars still bring less money, I don't have a clear figure though. They rust everywhere, lower quarters first, trunk floor and drop offs second, then the outer wheelhouses...

Great looking car! I'd leave the exterior as is. Big block swap is always necessary.
