Drive it like you stole it . . . And they're CHASING you!

Cool. Congrats. Are you going to do anything to it or just drive it? I saw one today on another site that was lowered. It looked really good.

I wonder how many people own both the original E-Body Challenger and the new one?  I might have to join those ranks soon.  Hard not to love them both.

That is good news.  :cheers: Now you need to post a picture of them side by side.

How long until the new "guy" gets lonely and he needs a friend?  :rofl: :haha:

I tried that line once with the wife, it did not go well.  :bricks: She said, you don't need any more cars. And by the way, that was about a half a dozen cars ago.  :drunk: :crazytalk:

After driving that, you won't want to drive the old one as much :alan2cents:

Darren, I'm just going to drive it as it is. I'm not done with the refresh on the 74 yet.

Alan, it will be interesting to see how I feel about the new one. It feels like it has more power, as it should. But based on a short test drive it doesn't have the cool factor for me that the old one does. It feels more like our van or our truck. Also the dash looks very similar to the van.
