For the dozens here who are begging me for pictures

Hats off to you......Talk about winning the "Richard Cranium Award"..beautiful car.....
 
I like big butts and I can't deny.......oh wait Nice Dodge there ;)
 
Did it hurt or did you have that kind of attachment to it?
 
I had a bunch of things go wrong on this restoration which just wore me down, plus i got severly injured while working on it back in June '11. As such, the desire & excitement that I once had for the car dropped off....but I still had to finish it. Once finished, I became paranoid about bringing it to cruise nights and driving it. Over the years, I've had a lot of nice (and expensive) cars there is always a "what if" thought that goes through your head, however, I've never been paranoid about any of them, but this was different. So, since the fun factor was lost for me, I put it up for sale.

Considering the work, time and the money it takes to restore one of these I can see how a guy who went thru it all could get paranoid about driving it.. Its a shame that its like that and if your like me in the least, Even with all the insurance possible covering it you couldn't bare for something to happen that may destroy the car.. It is a beauty and i hope whoever managed to get it treats it with a attitude that its a great time piece.. I cant be one who does a car and cant drive it myself, thats why i do what i do, I enjoy the old times, the memory's and the looks of a car that you know what it is without looking for a emblem to see what it is, I often wonder if i do manage to get the one car i want, that i had at one time if i would ever be afraid of taking it out, I don't think so but as you know already it can happen and once the "fun factor" ends, whats the point? 1/25 Die cast models much easier up keep, don't need a warehouse and a security guard.

That's right nice of them MOPAR fellas to put something on the back of that car to hang your clothes on when you're out in the woods camping - just so your shirts don't get wrinkled....how thoughtful...

Seriously, that is quite a ride!
