much appreciated.
Charger now taxed, insured AND MOT'D!!!
First time in 8 or so years
Glad to hear it drove ok, my brother will be dropping off the wheel trims over the next few days.
Not sure the old style English number plate works though

especially next to your 'American' plates Derek. Where/who do you get those from?
By the way thanks again Anton for sorting out the MOT so quickly

Hey Nick I found the wheel arch trims buried in the trunk so the only piece Im missing is the rear parcel shelf.
All the interior is back in and next on the list is new starter motor and new exhaust system.
Nick look at my post in the wanted section and see the full dash up for grabs.

Its not his Land Rover its mine and yes it sometimes needs a drip tray, when it stops leaking it needs more oil , only done 250856 miles though still needs running in !and had to pull a Mustang too , your charger towed well though Nick.

Thanks Anton I thought I had some more wheel trims somewhere. My bro may turn up with a few more so if they are in any better shape let me know..
He's also got the original steering wheel, I might get you to put it back on but no worries if you don't have time!!
JohnR: Pete Walton's right I'm afraid my everyday vehicle is a Landy, currently NOT leaking oil but probably cos there's none in it....120,000 miles on a TD5 chipped & boosted engine so always on borrowed time with that one
Pete Walton: I just realised you didn't get an AMC you stuck with Mopar and bought a Plymouth (I think..?)
Won't be long now before I can pop round on a Sunday morning in the Charger to p*** the neighbours off in that snobby old village you live in!!! More tea vicar??
Thanks again Anton

Nick us Landy owners have to stick together so the others don't gang up on us , did you notice the bit of green eye when we could get through the floods though when all the others were stuck ??
sorry for the hijack Anton

Thanks for that Pete, how I've managed to hang on to the Charger is anyone's guess
You rightly said if I sell it I would never ever be able to afford to buy another one again. How right you were Mystic Meg
Might see you at Wheels Day, its just down the road this year...??
Big thanks by the way to guys like Anton and Dave B who keep people like me (i.e time poor and utter sh**e & zero patience when it comes to fixing things car related) on the road
P.S JohnR couldn't agree with you more regarding Landy's I'm sure everyone is reeeally jealous of us driving around with no heater, rainwater p**sing in, clouds of smoke, draughts blowing in through the floor, candles for headlights, bump steer, dodgy electrics, reduced life expentancy at speeds over 50mph etc etc etc
