I know i know, they said it can be undone simply enough but still...why? :Doh:

And here I was hoping that it was going to be a pic of LW's car run over by a train.

So aside from the doors, what appears to be the problem? Looks like a great starter restoration project.

The doors are what kills the whole project! Why would anyone do that to a classic car in that good of condition!!!!

I will give them credit as it looks like some high quality work they did on the doors just wrong car to be putting them on.

Other then the ugly lambo doors thats the exact same shape and state my 70 Cuda is in. Its even on a rotisserie too lol

[Austin@STM]

I love that body, but I would be ashamed to roll up in a classic like that, and then have lambo doors pop up.

Awesome shape. The doors are just wrong though.

Man, I wish I had an unlimited supply of money. I would be all over that thing. I love the 70 Challenger! It's even close to home. :(

Those doors have to go back to original. What a waste of a great car if they plan on keeping the "lambo" doors.

[aaronatstate]

Lambo cars only look good on a Lambo, yet people put them on pretty much anything.

Ugh, those doors. Maybe it was supposed to make an appearance in the next F&F movie.

wheel gaps huge, and the wheels are so small! low rider on stilts?

Looks like an amazing start...well, maybe. One would still have to check out all the rails, frame and pans but...but....those...*shivers* doors lol

a friend of mine has a 2010 challenger and a 2011 mopar 10. summit racing wants him to bring both there and they will display both at the same time. they have 2 rotary displays but he will not take them out in our weather, salted roads.

god. i think i could have 6 MINTY vr4's in trophy condition for that kind of coin. ^

[mcshooter]

here is the story on how he got the mopar 10 if i can remember all. he bougth the 2010 challenger last summer and only drove it mostly to car shows and cruisein, it is one of less than 200 of his model. since it was a clear day he drove it to pick up his wife from the hospital after knee replacement. he got about a block from the hospital when a kid crossed and hit him head on.the challenger had a lot of damage but onl.y cosmetic. about 2 weeks later the salesman who sold it to him called and told him they just got a mopar 10. he called because he saw the wreck and knew the car and customer. in meantime cost of repair of challenger was to be 16k .. he wnt to look at the mopar 10 and bougth it on the spot .. it listed for over 40k but he got a chysler discount from my neighbor so 33k .. the dealer was giving him 23k on trade but sent they body shop guy to the body shop to look at the challenger. but now repair cost is up to 26k so they wont take a trade .. so he just went and bougth the mopar 10.. now since his wife had 3 wrecks last year he is buying the challenger from the body shop and has the car now. i dont know if any insurance is in this as his wife had to have the stiches put back in he knee. when you buy a mopar 10 and pick up the car they have a presentation with a chysler exc. i did not go but you get a case about the size of a laptop .. it has a certificate,picture, owners manual and wheel centers that show mopar 10 to replace the dodge ones on your wheels. so he now has both cars and i have not seen the mopar 10 yet but it is a black car with black wheels

Have you posted this before somewhere? Tell me I'm not going crazy.. although seeing the future could come in handy.

I remember attempting to decipher it once before. I still have no idea what happened.

[dbest671]
