Been looking at stuff here a while, figured I'd say hello- have has a '70 Challenger R/T in project state waiting for some love for almost 30 years now- lots of life and not much for funds for most of the time.  Youngest is graduating college this year so hopefully right time to make it nice.  And yes- it did spend some time in a barn.....

Plans include back to original color combo - Burnt Orange/ White Bumblebee with burnt orange cloth interior- hated that color for a long time but it's grown on me over the years.  Original motor and trans long gone as well as the '68 440 that was in it when I got it- currently has a running low mile '74 400 out of a rusty Monaco parts car from years ago with plans to use it as a core for a healthy stroker

Hope to have something as nice as I see here in the not too distant future

Welcome for Barrie, Ontario, Canada. Great car! Enjoy it! I'm really grateful that I too own a 70 Challenger but as much as I enjoy the car.... the friends I've made because of the car I value more. I hope the same for you!  :handshake:
