  1. Yes...and it will be again This is a limited run re-release...once the numbers are met the tooling will be reworked into the petty Charger once more
  2. I use that term loosely At 4 years and 110K miles its actually a great car I use it during the summer to put around town and she drives the '06 passat because it gets better gas mileage (only when she drives it though...I can't stay of off boost) during the Michigan winter the charger moves up to first string because of how great it is in the snow
  3. Yeah...I seen some great looking rims for sale today...OEM 20s...they look like cragar SSs with dark painted spokes for "only" $1495.00 (shipping not included)
  4. need a rebel flag and a skynyrd bumper sticker
  5. this is great we dont see enough prostreet mopars on here we dont see enough post 71 cudas on here this is a win win sih-ti-asjun
  6. heres one i was working on somehow it ended up on the back burner (let me tell you my back burner is like a magnet...it sucks in just about anything near it) but here it is
  7. welcome aboard Kevin the duster looks great (im sure every one on here is tired of hearing this story) but i almost bought one last year, a 71 i think that had been converted from a /6 into a 318 it had been restored once before (bout 15 years ago) and looked mean, paint was a flat black primer and it was rolling on cragar SS the interior was well in need of an overhaul but it had the front bench i love so much the guy was asking 2100 and i had him talked down to 1800 me, the wife and the checkbook went over there to buy it and when i asked him who to make the check out to he gave me a name that didnt match the name on the title i told him to give me a call when he had that fixed and never heard from him again
  8. hey, those are the rims im looking for for my wifes winterbeater (08 charger) looking good
  9. it better have super stones to spin those wheels *arg *arg*arg
  10. i dont want to say anything bad about Alan but ive waited longer for an order then that
  11. hey Darin, i bet your wife would like a model like this one thats my wife on the hood, its a great way to combine two things you love and it shows her she's still on your mind, even when you are doing something other then tending to her needs if its something you'd like to do shoot me a PM and ill work up a decal or two for you
  12. you can always check with George53 hes Alans cousin
  13. you know, living in MI i have the same problem so last year i got so sick of it i decided to buy a snowthrower attachement for my lawnmower i got it all hooked up and working great so i parked it in the ack of the garage and waited for the snow to fall and fall it did i woke up one morning to find over a foot of snow in my driveway so i got dressed, went into the garage.....when i noticed a flaw in my plan you see, i needed both cars on a daily basis and i only needed the snowthrower/lawnmower when it snowed bad so i parked the lawnmower in the back and then put in the cars...with a foot of snow in the driveway there was NO WAY i could get the cars out to get to the lawnmower
  14. that looks great, looks like something chip fooze would come up with but with nice wheels the only 2 things i dont like about it are the painted bumpers (just my personal preference) and the driverside rear and passenger front tires are on backwards did you modify the driveshaft aswell? it looks good and beefy
  15. not here the wifey supports my hobby and doesnt mind me having more unbuild modes then projects and more projects then finished models she even has one or two favorites in my pile of projects she tries to get me to push towards the front of the line when they have fallen behind
  16. it has a mercury front end BY it, not ON it seriously though, i thunk it was a ford
  17. me thinkest i see a custom coming maybe swap on a mercury front end ?
  18. this one should be dominated by mopars, they still owe them that from last years contest and well, you cant spell musclecar without mopar
  19. like this camaro, i couldnt decide if i should paint it white and use these rims or paint it red and use these rims ? and the winner is...the perfect getaway car, half the eyewitnesses saw a red car, the other half saw a white one
  20. sounds sweet and a perfect excuse to watch the trilogy when are we expecting the trailer to be out? ( before im giving my yes oder no i want to know what time frame im looking at) funny anekdote about the first mad max, i was trying to convince the wifey to watch it so i was explaining the story to her me: ...in an post appocoliptic world....driving a souped up ford looking for fuel... wifey: wait a minute, he is driving around lookinf for fuel? me: well, yeah, gasoline wifey: you know, if he just stopped driving around he wouldnt need any fuel me: well.....but....erhm...
  21. i think the modified stockers series might behat you are looking for
  22. looks good i slung some paint on mine the other day and the bed is settling onto the chassis as we speak its a little bit doglimping but i think thats perfect for this type of build its nice to see how the 440 fills in that engine bay compared to that 350 boatanchor that came with it
  23. thats great i love the looks of dually sized trucks with a single rear wheel (on each side of course) and this will look killer on a dirt truck
  24. also not done but this is where mine sits
