Once and future Challenger

T.Wrecks · June 16, 2021, 11:01:04 AM

Hey everyone.
I owned 7 Challengers back when you could pick them up for $500 for parts. My garage has been empty since. I started looking to get one, which is how I happened upon this forum. With any luck, I'll be posting pictures and asking questions soon.

Question #1 will be....why are they so expensive now?

I know why. It's my fault. I sent all but 1 to the junkyard.
My apologies to the rest of you.

Welcome to the forum sounds like you have plenty of experience with ebodies . Just a sign of the times and popularity of the beautiful ebody and muscle cars in general. $$$

Welcome from Colorado.
Effort, PA - seems like a relatively short trip to "Carlisle Chrysler Nationals" in a few weeks might be a worthwhile experience.......

I'm sure. I intend to go if my son isn't drifting that weekend.

Initially I was looking for a functional car that I could tinker with. Things were a little hectic and I wanted to be able to drive "NOW!"
But, my wallet decided a project car would better suit me.

I hate when that darn wallet gets in the way of a great plan...
