Here's a brief story of how I got this car. I've always wanted a charger ever since watching the Duke boys as a little kid. My friend owns a General Lee (one of the ones from the autotrader commercials) and down at the brewery one day a guy came up and they started talking. He mentioned that his landlord had one sitting in the yard so my friend gave me his number. I called him and went to see the car and it runs! (It's a 383, not original). He named a price that I couldn't turn down and scrambled to haul it away before he changed his mind. One of my other friends (who was a friend of the owner) saw the car and told me some really cool stories about when they would drive around down and just generally get into trouble. First order of business (besides the car cover that should be here any day) is cleaning the fuel system and re-doing the brakes. But here she is !
