    i can explain some more, my first car was a 84 dodge daytona turbo, i have no idea how high in the air i was but we jumped some railroad tracks by the riceland mill here but when we hit the ground we rolled about 100 feet and oil and parts were just a trail behind us.



    lets say ive grown up alot since my teenager years, i rarely go over the speed limit and then its on the interstate, usually set the cruise 5mph over, ive got a 91 daytona in the yard now thats super clean that when i get time we will get going, i really think all it needs is a fuel pump as ive had it running with carb cleaner, when im done with it ill have more in it than what its worth as ill send it to the body man to finish it up, trying to right some of my wrongs

    I voted general lee but only because it is closer to the 'cuda/challenger in looks.

    72 'cuda was the best ever.

    The new retro challenger is a nice rendition. Wouldn't mind if one of those turned up in my Christmas stocking.

    Gota be the General, I have had this great love of Dodge and Plymouth since i was about seven, saw a couple guys my dad worked with, outrun every cop in town right down Second street,broad daylight . in a 69 Road Runner.They got airborne at the end of Second street,blew out two tires,made it to the gravel road, had another flat. they made it to an old salvage yard out in the country, The State police, the county cops pulled up the radiator was steaming three flats, were fixing to tow it, when the guy who owned the salvage yard told them " I just bought that car its not going anywhere" LOL it was the talk of the town for several days.

    Bandit. I guess I must be the only one who had a crush on Sally Field.

    And you gotta love the fact that they didn't want to kill a challenger in the end of the movie so it was actually a Camaro that got demolished.

    I've got a soft spot for the old challengers, got a plum crazy purple 1970 challenger R/T SE 440, 4 barrel, pistol grip 4 speed car I'm in the process of restoring.

    My dream car right there. I love old mopar and the challanger is my fav out of all of them. Sounds like you've got a real beauty. Have fun with the resto.

    I wouldn't refuse either car. They're both bad... Gotta give attention to S&T's Gran Torino. However, I'd take the "Fall Guy's" pickup with Jacqueline Smith from Charlie's Angels riding middle bench any day!!!

    My dad had a 69 Charger... non-RT w/ green paint and black vinyl top.

    Here's some pics. She's a little dusty, had to push it out of the shop for now and put it in the mower shed to make some room.
