OK, so I've had this a few months and still havn't given her a proper thread. So here goes ...
Basic rundown:
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T.
383 Magnum. A727 Torqueflite. All #'s matching.
Left the factory FE5 Bright Red with a White Longitudinal stripe, but was repainted approx. 10 years ago by a previous owner.
Not much else to say really. Drives like a dream. Had some minor rust in the rear quarters repaired. This was when I also removed the side stripe. Has a little more rust in the boot that I will have to get sorted ASAP.
Have put it up for sale a few times due to some financial difficulties, but each and every time I got lucky and had something change or an offer come through that has enabled me to keep it. Hope that trend continues!
There are 2 things in life that give me more joy than most, and that is driving the Chally and photography - so here's a few results of the two combined.
Cheers,
Russ

Very nice Russ!
Good to see you have been giving it plenty of cruising and in all weather. Unlike myself....have not had mine out for almost six months...:cry:
Looks like you are a bit of a talent in photography :cool:
Cool video too...but if it was me I would have wiped out the camera with shredded rubber off those rear tyres. Want me to show you how it's done? :lol:

That's why I didn't stomp it from the get-go and waited a second before putting my foot down. Didn't want to bugger the camera.
Plus that would be illegal, and I'm not a hoon.
