Fisher61 Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Here's my '69 Charger I built about 3yrs ago pretty much out of the box other than the BMF. I had a '68 back in high school in these same colors, other than the interior, mine was blue. Can't wait for Revell to issue the '68 again so I can replicate my long lost '68. Thanks for looking and let me know what you think.
MrObsessive Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Beautiful work as always Bill!! I really wish Chrysler could have picked up more styling cues from this era for their current Charger than what it is now. Sad Charger story.................When I was in a senior in high school, I had a friend that had a '68 Charger that he absolutely cherished! One day coming home from school on the bus we had seen a car fire.............it was my friends Charger! He tried to throw a cigarette out of the window while driving (all of the windows were down) and the still lit cigarette ended up in the backseat eventually catching it ablaze! Needless to say, the car was history!

Needless to say, the car was history! Thanks, Bill. It's always great to have your "seal of approval"! My Chargers demise came with a hard lesson. Back in October of '81, I had left a party drunk, went and bought a 6-pack and drove around, passed out and pushed the trunk of a parked Ford Falcon into it's back seat. Luckily, no one was hurt, but I sure cleaned up my act after that mess. What was left of the Charger sat in my parents garage for about 6 years, But being married by then and with money so tight, I had to let it go. I would still have that car if I wasn't so stupid in my youth!
