If you really stop and ponder a moment, all the things you could do with your E-Body, what would it be?

To clarify,

this thread is a little like the infamous "Bucket List" for your main ride. However, it only ask one thing and no more.

It could be something you add - A nifty 8-71 Blower by example.
Somewhere you and your ride would like to go - A cool Drive/Cruise Event/Car Show/Drag Strip/Race Track by example.
For what it is worth, it might even be a means to secure the future of your E-Body - Hiding it in your garage and save it to be an inherited item.

No matter how significant or insignificant you might think it is, let us know.

Your E-Body and You!

Personally, I am trapped between Hot August Nights in Reno, NV and Woodward Dream Cruise in Birmingham, MI.
If it came right down to "One" I would lean towards the latter.

Mine is fairly simply........I just want to drive it! The poor thing has been in bits for 10 years. Thats about to change though.

Two replies that have a quest to do with their E-bodies! Exactly what I am talking about!

My 'Cuda just got "done", but Stage II for it is to add a Supercharge the Hemi, ~500whp is my overall goal. After that, I would love to do an entire Power Tour.

:iagree:  I just want to get it up and running, but don't see that in the foreseeable future. but ultimately I'm trying (hoping, lol) to get it up by it's 50th b'day in Aug '19
Growing older is mandatory...growing up is optional.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

'70 Barracuda B5/B5 225 /6 3spd ... about as bare bones as they came

 :burnout:        I'll play.......   I'd love to just get in my car and drive all over the USA, stop when I feel like it, stay as long as I want, then get back in and drive on....and be able to do that without worrying some slime ball would steal it.

Would love to get my A66 Challenger vert back on the road and drive it endlessly.
Has been off the road and stored since 1984 and just started to work on it in 2015 following my retirement!

I know the feeling 340challconvert. Great looking car you have there by the way! Does it need much to make it safe and have it running and driving?
