Oh Hi Taz by the way!

Hi Phill440 er yes kind of. There is not much left of the one that's in the car. We are leaving it up to John as to what is the easiest way to deal with it. The first step is to get it on a jig and see exactly what is going on and then see what the next plan of action will be.
Cool! That's going to be some project! I loved that part of ownership, seeing the car coming apart and slowly but surely being fixed, improved and coming back together.
Must get myself back down to JC's

I think it was originally blue with a white roof. It then got sprayed yellow but the blue interior remains. I think the reg is MLE 179 L but I['m not at home to check. John said he would give RR the task to see if he had any photos of it from years ago. It was first registered in this country in August 1972. It came out the factory with a 318 engine but I now have a 383 that came with it when I bought it.

So was John doing lots of sucking through his teeth and big deep breaths.
Now you see why it's addopted the name of "the shed"

This picture made me laugh.

Take out the truck and that could be straight out of an episode of the Dukes.
Or is it just landing on the back?

If you have seen the car then you would say it has done the jump but not very successfully.

Unfortunately she needs a lot of work Taz - more than the average Charger I'd say. Much more. I had a look at your car on Saturday (I have a couple of pics I can post if you like). John was explaining what needs doing. It is impressive that it can be done in the first place. You can take comfort in knowing that it will have been done properly though, and with what you are having done, in needs to be done properly, with a jig. It'll be great when its done. You will be well please, and a nother Charger will be fighting fit again.
