these are the pics from the PO. pretty much the same now. did some underhood odds and ends and gave her a good buffing.

I don't have a picture of mine the first day I laid eyes on it, but the first picture is close. I had cleaned it up a bit and gotten an old car cover to keep it cleaner until I hauled it home.

Second picture if after I hauled it home. Third is me blasting up and down the road with a shi++y grin pasted on my face!

Mine still looks like this - restoration on hold while I collect some parts and finish another car...

This is what my GTX looked like the day I brought it home in 1979, I bought it from one of my best friends my senior year in high school, he owned it about one year and it looked pretty much the same when he got it.

Oh, yuck!!!! It's amazing what a little fluff & buff does to a car isn't it? Paging Cr8crshr?

69a100,

You mean you would let: 30yrs of barn swallow droppings and mice habitat; some errant cow manure; usage as storage; etc., deter you from taking on such a rewarding challenge? Ha-ha (This one was just a tad bit more than a fluff and buff.) A lesser enthusiast (i.e.: someone looking for monetary profit) would have simply walked away.

Projects this worn and rough pull us in...to take them all the way down to their bones. The photo journal I now have documenting "I rebuilt that", is just the icing on the cake...it's the journey I went on while doing it that sticks with me. :headbang:

Awesome thread, these are the first time I saw my Charger, first pic was pj Craigslist, 2nd was how I found it in LA. Unfortunately I don't have any of it and the '70 gtx it was sitting next to in the same picture.
