Hey! Im from california and have been a mopar fan since..birth I guess, raised by my mopar fanatic dad we have always been into a-bodies, mostly slant sixes but we recently fell into this charger. Saw an add on craigslist for a 1973 charger SE brougham with 9,500 original miles! We both thought it was a fake but went to check it out, and it was true, ALL original (spark plugs, wires, possibly tires) rust free, garage kept, piece of history! Like something out of a movie we got the big block 400 factory 4bbl green on green with not a scratch, rip or tear to be found. We thought about selling it but couldn't find an offer we thought was right for the condition so it's our's. So I came here to find like minded individuals who love these museum piece chryslers and maybe look for help ( though we can't bring ourselves to drive this thing TOO much) Let me know what you think.

Well that's a once in a lifetime find, for sure! Like you say almost hard to believe...so did you buy it from the original owner? Congrats though ...and welcome aboard, great place to hang your mopar hat. :grin:
 
Welcome. Quite the first post! Quite the car, once in a lifetime.

There's a bunch of us Mopar Freaks located near you. I'm in Sonora, you'll be hearing from others on the board soon I'm sure. Hope to see that mighty Charger at the Mopar shows in '12.
